For more than 30 years, people full of hope have been making pilgrimages to the first German border and peace chapel in Burggrub. 14 guest books bear witness to the longing for peace of the Germans. The construction of the chapel is intended to commemorate the former unfortunate border and to remind people of peace in the world. When the wall and the border were dissolved, the evangelical parish built this chapel right on the border. As a sign that walls can fall peacefully.

The chapel was built in 1992 as a memorial against the division of Germany directly on the former border.

If you pass the sign, you should also go to the border and peace chapel. Is from the location about 300-400 meters.
