    The chapel was built to commemorate the victims of World War II. It was originally called the "War Memorial Chapel." It was consecrated on Ascension Day by Pastor Heinrich Kurtenbach. In 2006, tourists donated a statue of St. Joseph. The name "Josefsberg," however, has nothing to do with St. Joseph; rather, it derives from the local mayor, Josef Bartel, who had the "Ginsterberg" divided in 1900. Since then, it has been referred to as both "Josefsberg" and "Ginsterberg."
