During the Reformation, this Roman Catholic monument was demolished by order of Landgrave Philip the Magnanimous in 1527/28. The foundations of the chapel were discovered in 1925.

The chapel ruins are located above the Elisabeth fountain near Schröck. A parking lot for a few cars is in front of the fountain. Starting point for some tours over the Lahnberge
