The chapel is dedicated to Saints Sebastian and Rochus. The reason for the construction was a vow made by the citizens of Kronach in 1634. After the siege by the Swedes and the spread of the plague, the citizens vowed to build a chapel.
The Sebastiani octave is still used today.
Inside are still three votive tablets that indicate that the chapel (and its source) is also associated with miraculous healings.
