Tips

Saint Roch is the patron saint against the plague. The pilgrimage to Saint Roch takes place on the Sunday after August 16th. On that day, Mass is celebrated outdoors. The organ can be adjusted using soundboards, allowing its sound to reach the outside as well.

Goethe donated a painting of Saint Roch to the chapel. Unfortunately, the entire chapel burned down in 1889 after being struck by lightning. The current building was reconstructed by cathedral architect Max Meckel between 1893 and 1895. The architectural style is Neo-Gothic.
