During the difficult and dangerous years of the war, with the many losses, air raids often several times a day, and the dangerous location of the village between two airfields in Eutingen and Hailfingen, near the important railway line that runs halfway around the village, the priest vowed to build a chapel dedicated to Mary after the war if Mary would protect the village. The finished chapel was consecrated on September 16, 1945, and has stood in the forest near the Schoenstatt Center Liebfrauenhöhe ever since.

Located somewhat "hidden" in the forest, behind it a crossroads leads to the parking lot at the Pfarrbergle biotope and to the beautiful, spacious barbecue and playground (on the other side of the street)
