The chapel «St. Wendel im Wyler »is located on the way up to the Oberalp Pass at the old wayside. It was in 1656 by Chur Bishop Johann VI. inaugurated and renovated in 1787. From 1803 the room served as a stable and shed. In 1983 the "Association for the Preservation of the Wendelins Chapel" took over the building fabric. With a comprehensive restoration, the current appearance could be achieved.
