The St. Oswaldkapelle is located at 2,365 meters in the hiking and skiing area Merano 2000. Already in the 15th century is reported by a shrine or a chapel to St. Oswald in said place.

In 1641, the farmers of Hafling vowed to build a chapel at the foot of the Ifinger for St. Oswald, patron saint of livestock and pastureland, and to make a procession there at the feast of his name. The old chapel remained in its original location for almost 250 years until it gave way to a new building in 1879.

On the 5th of August, the day of St. Oswald, the annual "Oswald Kirchtag" takes place: a prayer tour to the chapel with field mass and the following church day.
