The church, first mentioned in 1465, is unadorned in the simple Gothic style.
It is believed that there was a connection with the castle of the noble free von Leutenbach, which is assumed on today's castle stone above the chapel.
The castle and Moritzkapelle are said to have been connected by an underground passage.
