Beautiful little forest chapel between Essenbach and Oberhandenzhofen invites you to rest and linger. The year 1947 is given as the date of construction of the chapel. However, it is probably much older. It shows a painting of St. Laurentius, once dean in Rome in 250, who died a martyr's death by Emperor Valerian. The painting comes from the Dachau church painter Richard Huber and is one of the numerous works of art in the Dachau district.
