    Saint St Roch is the patron saint against the plague. On Sunday after the 16th of August the pilgrimage to St. Rochus takes place. Then the outdoor fair is held here. The organ can be switched by sound valves and so it also sounds in the outdoor area.
    Goethe donated a painting of St. Rocco for the chapel. Unfortunately, the entire chapel burnt down in 1889 by a lightning strike. The present building was rebuilt by master builder Max Meckel from 1893 to 1895. The architectural style is neo-Gothic.
