The tear chapel was built over an old place of worship and a cup stone used for healing for a long time.

Currently unfortunately because Renovation closed. My pictures are from 2009. Only two of the different chapels on Mount Saint-Odile are still there:
The Chapelle des Larmes - Chapel of Tears - and the Chapelle des Anges - Chapel of Angels. Both from the 12th century
The Chapel of Tears stands in the middle of the old Franconian cemetery with carved rock tombs. Odile is said to have prayed here daily for the salvation of her father's soul.
The Chapel of Tears is lavishly decorated with gold mosaics from the Hortus Deliciarum - 1st half of the 20th century.
