    From the chapel you have a beautiful view of the Wellheim market with the castle.

      Small baroque building, probably around 1720. The chapel is picturesquely situated on dolomite rocks that rise to the south-east of Wellheim on the mountain heights. It is a small rectangular structure, the side of the altar is curved in a convex manner and connects to the long sides with sloping walls. Flat ceiling. Cartouches with tape work stuccoed on the walls, around 1720-1730. Altar new

        A way of the cross with its 14 stations leads from the Wellheimer church through shady beech forest up to the Kreuzelkapelle. This simple, plain little church, enthroned on a boulder sloping steeply on all sides, was built in 1654 in honor of the Holy Virgin and Our Lady of God. In contrast to the simple exterior structure, the interior of the chapel has a baroque interior.

            Chapel, originally built in the 17th century, not accessible.
