The St. Anna Chapel is located just before the entrance to Mulfingen, coming from Jagstberg.

The St. Anna Chapel in Mulfingen in the Hohenlohe district in Baden-Württemberg is a Catholic pilgrimage church.At the foot of the Jagstberg there is a spring whose water was considered to have healing properties even in ancient Germanic times and continued to be used in the Christian Middle Ages. In 1510, the bailiff of Jagstberg, Knight Zaisolf von Rosenberg, had the chapel built in honor of Mary. The altar was probably designed in the years 1514 to 1518 in Tilman Riemenschneider's school. The pilgrimage chapel's first heyday ended in 1551. At that time, because fewer and fewer pilgrims were coming, the chapel was given to the forester Pankratius Nuss as a stable building. After the forester and his wife died, the chapel was renovated at the instigation of the Jagstberg bailiff Johann Arnold, who was driven to do so by dreams, and consecrated again in 1596. The supposedly dried up spring was also rediscovered.Source Wikipedia
