Otto Hämmerle had this chapel built in 1905/06 in his holiday colony. Their style is reminiscent of Scandinavian village churches, since the design comes from a Nordic painter. The chapel was intended to enable Sunday services for the Hämmerle families and hotel guests, but also for those who lived in Schwarzenberg and for Sunday hikers.
In honor of Mary, the Ascension Day, August 15th, was chosen as the church consecration day and patron saint.
