A chapel was erected on this private property to commemorate five families murdered towards the end of World War II. These had been hiding in a bunker inside the hill (Königskogel, then an anti-aircraft position) and had been discovered and killed by the Soviets.
No entry, taste is debatable, it is definitely interesting.

Funny thing, a “private” chapel, can only be viewed from a distance. And the funniest thing is the gate in the middle of the meadow without a fence. But it's definitely a great photo opportunity.
