    Above the moated castle Crottorf on the so-called Schnabelberg stands the Kreuzkapelle. The chapel was built in 1701 on behalf of Anna Elisabeth Countess von Hatzfeldt.
    In 1895, a mausoleum was added to the building as a princely crypt.

    A gem from the 18th century as the end of a way of the cross! Anna Elisabeth Countess von Hatzfeldt had this chapel built in 1701 in honor of the Holy Cross. The octagonal building reproduces the Ascension Chapel in Jerusalem. Four members of the von Hatzfeld family were laid to rest in the mausoleum.
