    A few meters east of the parish church is the baroque Andreas chapel. The original chapel is said to have predated the parish church. In 1734 the new building was built by Simon Weber from Staffelstein after a crack by "Bamberg builders" - the cornerstone was laid on May 11, 1734 by the Scheßlitz chaplain J.B. Horchler, who later became the pastor of Lohndorf.

    Two open, sloping Baroque chapels are built on both sides of the facade (they are located above ossuaries). The left chapel was built in 1713 by Georg Geizer. It houses a Mount of Olives. The figures of the Mount of Olives are carved from stone and painted.

    In the right chapel there is a burial group. It was created together with the chapel in 1736 by Leonhard Gollwitzer and stylistically adapted to the existing chapel.
