    The forest devotion Perchtoldsdorf is a small Catholic pilgrimage chapel in the Vienna Woods, which belongs to the municipality of Perchtoldsdorf. It is considered the highest sacred building in Perchtoldsdorf and is a listed building.
    Translated by
    The forest devotion Perchtoldsdorf is located in the forest near the Kugelwiese, just below the Kammersteinerhütte.
    Translated by
    The chapel, dedicated to Saint Mary of the Assumption, has an ovoid outline and is approximately 3 meters wide, 3.5 meters deep and 4 meters high. It is crowned by a small turret, the boulders and the Portland cement masonry are striking. Since 1947 there has been a statue of Our Lady of Fatima in the chapel.[1] A "natural staircase" with stones leads up to the chapel.
