    Today's cemetery chapel was once the choir of a larger monastery church of the Servite Order. It was completed around 1400 and rebuilt to its current appearance in 1877/78 because a side aisle was lost in the Seven Years' War and the rest of the nave had to be demolished due to its dilapidation.
    In today's church there are still uncovered wall paintings from 1472 and several old epitaphs.
    The surrounding cemetery was once the courtyard of the Servite monastery.
    Since 2003, the church has been the end point of the ecumenical pilgrimage from Görlitz to Vacha (Via Regia).
