the Gegg brothers Hans, Franz and Peter promised their mother to build a chapel after her death. A paved path leads from Dollnstein up to the chapel. Beautiful view of Dollnstein and the surrounding area

The "Maria am Steinbügel" chapel has found its place on the old Roman road and the cycle and hiking trail from Dollnstein to Eberswang. The client is Peter Gegg and the inauguration was in 2013. The building consists of exposed masonry made of Jura marble. The roof structure and door leaves are made from hand-picked oak. Next to the chapel is a free-standing bell tower. The modern altarpiece was created by the sculptor and artist Rupert Fieger.
