The chapel is beautifully situated in the forest and looks very pretty from the outside.

"Sankt Kümmernis, also known as Wilgefortis, is one of the most curious figures in the white and blue heaven of saints. The depictions show her as a young woman who wears a full beard and Christ's robes and is also crucified. Basically, she seems just as weird, like the fictional character Conchita Wurst from the European Song Contest. She is venerated in the Kümmernis chapel. The church does not even recognize Saint Kümmernis as a saint. Because the legends that have formed her image are all too fantastic. She is said to be a pious king's daughter "It is said that she asked God to physically disfigure her so that the men would let her go. After this happened, her father is said to have become so angry that he had her crucified."

The small chapel is definitely worth a visit.
