    This "Fatima Chapel" is dedicated to the Mother of God. It was named after the town of Fatima in Portugal, where Mary appeared several times to some shepherd children in 1917 (during the First World War). Our Lady revealed three secrets to the children.

    Pope John Paul II attributed his survival of the assassination attempt on him on May 13, 1981 - the commemoration of the first apparition of the Virgin Mary in Fatima - to Our Lady there. The bullet that almost killed him was later incorporated into the crown of the statue of Our Lady in Fatima as a votive offering.

      The Fatima Chapel is a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary “on the mountain”. It was built from tuff around 1800 by Peter Josef Doll, the owner of the former Trassmühle on Mühlengasse.

        Was built in the 18th century by a priest from Burgbrohl to express gratitude to someone who had recovered.
