From wherever you're coming, it's been a tough uphill to come here. But once you see the view, you know it was worth it. This small chapel was built by the people from Łapszanka village (north down the valley). It was believed that these chapels (equipped with a bell) were able to protect from the storms, they were used (the bell was ringed) when storm clouds were coming so that people that were working in the fields could have time to find a shelter. In 1967 a man was striked by a lightning when ringing the bell. There is a copy of Our Lady of Czestochowa image inside the chapel. It is one of very few remaining buildings of this type in the whole territory of Sub-Tatra regions.
