Beautiful chapel was built in 1983 and consecrated in honor of St. Nepomuk the patron saint of bridges. The interior design of the chapel is very beautiful and simple, with the crucifix on the wall with the two wall lights and St. Nepomuk, all in one in a rustic style. The chapel is built in a wonderful location, surrounded by tall conifers and beech trees, all in one a nice place to relax and enjoy nature with the view. As a nature lover - whether on foot or by bike - a visit is warmly recommended.

The chapel is dedicated to St. Nepomuk. He is considered the bridge saint and patron saint of confession. Nice place to enjoy the view from the St. Nepomuk chapel over the surrounding area. A moving stainless steel arrow on a stone table shows you how far and where to look.

Very nice chapel. Place with a wonderful foresight and a slide explanation board. Great resting place!
