The St. Nicholas Chapel on the Reifenberg is visible from afar. Once stood at this point and in the area of the adjacent cemetery, the medieval castle of the noble Free of Reifenberg. From the Vexierkapelle you have a great view of the Wiesental and on Walberla opposite.

The chapel of St. Nicholas - often called "Vexierkapelle" - was rebuilt from 1607 to 1613 on the site of a former castle of the Lords of Reifenberg. Around 1705, the expansion in the west was added. The striking tower with the onion dome was first built in 1788; the interior is neo-Gothic. Since the chapel is located on a more than 450 meter high mountain spur, it appears as a widely visible landmark in different views - perhaps this is the reason for the peculiar name "Vexierkapelle".
The square in front of the church offers a great view of the Franconian Switzerland - especially to the Walberla.

Saint Nicholas, Bishop of Myra, to whom this church with the nickname "Vexierkapelle" in Reifenberg is dedicated, is - along with Saint Martin - probably one of the most popular saints of all. Almost every child in Germany - and far beyond - is probably familiar with his day of remembrance, December 6th.
On the eve of this day, the children used to put their shoes and boots in front of the door - which were of course cleaned with great care - so that Saint Nicholas could fill them with gifts during the night. In more agricultural areas, it was also customary for children to provide a small donation of food for the donkey, St. Nicholas' riding animal (according to another tradition, it was a gray horse).
