    Beautiful old chapel. Small bench in front to rest.

      The Marienkapelle is a Roman Catholic chapel on the Hirschberg in the municipality of Langen near Bregenz.

      story

      In 1401 the chapel was built as John's Chapel by the hermit Sylavnus. In 1413, a Dominican convent with a church was built on the Hirschberg. In 1462 the monastery burned down due to lightning. The following year, the rebuilt monastery burned down again due to lightning. Whereupon the Dominican nuns moved to Hirschthal near Kennelbach in 1465. In the years 1755, 1807 and 1838 the chapel burned down due to lightning. The Marienkapelle, which still exists today, was built in 1838. In 1948 the chapel was renovated.

        Chapel in very special shingled wooden construction, with strikingly simple interior furnishings.
