"The chapel was built before the Thirty Years' War. After that, protective church buildings were no longer necessary.
Built on the site of a pagan court (remains of a ring wall + actual buildings)
1218/19 first documented mention under the Nanen Holzberg (village + church).....
The chapel is one of the most important places of pilgrimage in the Taunus region"
Panel inside the chapel

"A branch of the mother church of the mother church on the Johanniskirche near Bad Nauheim was built within the ramparts. The church, which is essentially medieval, belonged to the Teutonic Order in 1218 and was a place of pilgrimage. The associated settlement of Oberholzburg fell in the 15th century. Wüst."

A historic chapel that sheltered believers in the Thirty Years' War.
This year it is always open for a moment of reflection and prayer.
