Bolsdorf Chapel of St. Margaretea

The first chapel was built around 1500, the altar was consecrated in 1505. The current building from the 17th century was provided with a new choir in 1882 and an enlarged nave.
The pretty chapel is St. Dedicated to Margareta.

Parish Patron:

St. Margarethe, the patroness of the branch chapel in Bolsdorf, was executed as a martyr at Antioch in Pisidia in 305 during the persecution of Christians. She is counted among the 14 helpers in need and belongs to St. Catherine and St. Barabara to the "three holy girls". As in Bolsdorf, she is portrayed as a virgin with a martyr's crown, a palm tree and St. Book.

Feast day: July 20th.

Borsdorf impresses with an old town center. This also includes a small, cute church.

The Catholic branch church St. Margaretha is a three-axis hall building from the 17th century that was expanded in 1882. If you have a little time with you, you should take a look at the beautiful choir inside the chapel.
