The Saint Amor Chapel is a chapel in the Munsterbos in Munsterbilzen in the Belgian municipality of Bilzen.

This accessible chapel was built after the Second World War with materials from monuments destroyed during the war. The architectural style is special, and looks more like a castle than a chapel.
In 2008, the interior of the chapel was vandalized by vandals, including the destruction of a statue of Our Lady of Flanders. There is still a wooden statue of Saint Amor present. It is a copy of the Sint-Amor statue in Maastricht and was made by Charles Vos.
