The Pankratius Chapel is an emergency church in Gießen that was built in 1949 according to plans by the church architect Otto Bartning. The hall church in timber truss construction with a five-eighth note has largely been preserved in its original condition and is a Hessian cultural monument. The nearby late Gothic tower of the Gießen town church, which was destroyed in 1944, belongs to the Pankratius parish and serves as its bell tower.
