Erected around 1860 by the Hentern forester Stefan Horn. Inside a statue of Our Lady of Sorrows. [...] The old statue had been damaged in 1939/40, so that in 1951 the owner ordered a new Madonna in Speicher from the clayformer Klein, which is still here today. In the same year the roof of the chapel was renewed and in 1987 it was repainted.
