Similar to the Petronella Chapel on the grounds of the Dirlau estate, the St. Nicholas Chapel is also related to the nunnery near Füssenich. Built in the second half of the 13th century, making it the oldest building in Lüxheim, the chapel was remodeled in the 15th/16th century and the ridge turret was added in the 17th/18th century. Inside, a figure of St. Nicholas, which was created around 1300, indicates the connection to the Premonstratensian nuns, whose monastery is also dedicated to St. Nicholas.
