The Irmgardiskapelle stands on the Heiligenberg in the Süchtelner heights. Saint Irmgardis is known beyond the borders of addicts. Her bones are in Cologne Cathedral.
Countess Irmgardis was born at Aspel Castle in 1025 and died in Cologne in 1085.

After the death of her parents, she allegedly gave away her inheritance and lived as a hermit in the place where she is revered today. Every day she went to church in Helenabrunn.

"The Irmgardiskapelle is a symbol of the religiosity of the citizens of the former town of Süchteln. It is known beyond the borders of the city. This shows the number of visitors every year on September 4th, the day of Saint Irmgardis' death, or on the following Sunday The festival of St. Irmgardis is celebrated with special solemnity. Tradition also includes the festive procession of the 300-year-old St. Irmgardis-Schützen-Brotherhood Süchteln-Dornbusch on the following Monday morning. "

There are other highlights around the Irmgardis Chapel, such as a tombstone with a skull, a large cross and the Irmgardis spring.
