The Brigida Chapel is the Roman Catholic chapel in the district of Kronenburgerhütte in the municipality of Dahlem in the district of Euskirchen (North Rhine-Westphalia).
The church belongs to the parish of St. Johann Baptist Kronenburg and is listed as a monument under number 68 in the list of monuments in Dahlem (Northern Eifel).
The Kronenburgerhütte chapel was built in 1734 as a hall church with a choir closed on three sides in the Baroque style. The small church was donated by Everhard Lux. It was consecrated in 1745. In 1901, the bell tower was finally added to the west side. In 1976 the chapel was renovated under the direction of Werner Geyer from Mechernich.
Inside there is a presumably baroque high altar. Built into this is a picture of St. Brigida of Kildare from 1950. Also in the interior is a colorfully painted figure depicting St. Catherine of Alexandria probably from the 17th century, a Pietà and a figure of St. to see Joseph. These two figures are also painted and probably date from around 1900. Four of the five windows were created by the glass painter Rolf Dettmann in 1986 and one window is a work by the artist Margret Kaltwasser from the year 2000.
The bell with a diameter of 33 cm and a weight of 22 kg was cast in Cologne in 1737 by Engelbert Fuchs.
