    Siechenhauskapelle von 1473

    Die Siechenhauskapelle, gelegen am östlichen Stadtrand an der Straße Richtung Beinstein, ist eines der ältesten Gebäude Waiblingens und von großer stadtgeschichtlicher Bedeutung. Erbaut 1473, stand die Kapelle ehemals in baulicher Einheit mit dem zweiten, 1559 erbauten und 1972 abgerissenen Siechenhaus in der Beinsteiner Straße, am ehemaligen Handelsweg ins Remstal. Das erste Siechenhaus ist für 1350 nachgewiesen. Sie war einst von einem Friedhof umgeben, auf dem die Aussätzigen beigesetzt wurden und gehört zu den wenigen Gebäuden, die den großen Stadtbrand von 1634 überstanden haben.

    The Siechenkapelle is the only building that survived the city fire (1634?). In the MA it was adjacent to several buildings in which lepers were housed (they had to isolate themselves at the time) and at that time served as a place of worship for the sick. The infirm chapel and the buildings also included a few fields in the immediate vicinity, with which the lepers could take care of themselves.

    Built in 1473. The chapel is one of the few buildings in Waiblinen that survived the great town fire of 1634.
