The Sint-Apolloniakapel (also: white chapel) is an accessible chapel that is located at the intersection of Millerstraat and Hoogboschveld east of Genoelselderen.
This is a curious, circular chapel from about 1700, which is situated on a fairly high artificial hill that was occupied with cobblestones in the 20th century. A staircase leads to the building, which is made of brick with corner bands of marlstone. The entrance part jumps forward and is executed in marlstone. The domed roof is of a later date than construction.

The Saint Apollonia Chapel (also: white chapel) is a remarkable, round chapel from around 1700, which is located on a fairly high artificial hill. The building was originally a watchtower. There are still two loopholes in the facade. During the 18th century, the tower was shortened and transformed into a chapel.
