Surrounded by the Basilica of St. Mary, the Priest's House, the Candle Chapel, the Forum Pax Christi, and other sacred buildings such as the Sacrament Chapel and the Confession Chapel, it exudes a special sense of peace and security. At its center is the Chapel of Grace, which houses the image of Mary as the "Comforter of the Afflicted" (Latin: Consolatrix Afflictorum).

People from all over the world make pilgrimages here. They seek comfort, pray, and light candles. Others simply enjoy a break from their hectic daily lives and are enchanted by the special atmosphere of the Chapel Square.

Those interested in history and architecture will also find something to enjoy at Chapel Square. Churches, chapels, and outbuildings from various centuries bring Kevelaer's pilgrimage history to life at Chapel Square.
