    Both protected as a monument by MB of 30.04.2004. This chapel and cloister are originally 17th century and were built by the Recoletten fathers. In 1820 Canon Triest bought this former Friar Minor convent and since 1832 the Sisters of Charity have been established here. The monumental round-arched gateway in a bluestone frame to the right of the chapel was added in 1900-1902. The chapel contains the miraculous statue of the Virgin Mary, which according to legend was miraculously found in a thorn bush in 1448. In 1884 a neo-Gothic chapel for the Marian Congregation was built on the top floor with a wooden barrel vault. The intimate upper chapel contains a beautiful neo-Gothic high altar designed by the famous architect and neo-Gothic master builder Jean-Baptiste Bethune. The furniture is of exceptional quality and the interior has been fully preserved.
