This charming chapel built in 1693 offers a breathtaking view of the superb Murbach Abbey.

The Way of the Cross from the village to the chapel, or the other way round, is just under 300 meters long and leads along a stepped path along the crosses and symbols of the Way of the Cross. It is easy to walk in and you have a nice view of the monastery.

This chapel, built in 1693 on a promontory above the abbey, is heavily inspired by the Santa Casa de Loreto; hence her name Notre-Dame de Lorette (Our Lady of Loretto). The chapel, which had been commissioned by the monks of Murbach to replace the ruins of a former chapel in the same place, was consecrated by the Bishop of Basel. Unique vantage point overlooking the Abbey of Murbach.
