    Hiking

    The chapel was built in 1856 as a small religious structure in the form of a wayside shrine and served the local population as a place of devotion and prayer. Over the decades, however, the building gradually fell into disrepair, was eventually abandoned and partially destroyed. Many years later, from the early 2000s onwards, the desire arose to restore the structure as a cultural and historical memorial. Through voluntary commitment and donations, the chapel was finally faithfully reconstructed, secured, and rebuilt.

    Hiking

    The chapel was built in 1856 by Salome Braun from the Order of the Franciscan nuns.
    The stone pedestals along the way come from a Stations of the Cross, whose figures have now been transferred to the Naunheim church, the hometown of Salome Braun.
    Again and again wantonly destroyed, the chapel is unfortunately now abandoned to decay.
