The chapel was built by Margarethe and Johann Sölch from Zwergau. In 1954, they decided to build a church opposite their property in memory of their son Johann, who died in Russia in 1944 during the Second World War. A mass is held there once a year.

The chapel is unfortunately closed. Nevertheless, together with the surrounding buildings, it forms a beautiful village center.
