Marienkapelle, Medieval chapel in Frauenthal, Erftstadt, Germany.

The Marienkapelle is a church building in Frauenthal featuring simple hall construction with a slate-covered gabled roof. Later renovations and additions have gradually altered the original symmetrical appearance of the structure.

The monastery complex that gave rise to this chapel was first documented in 1220 and stood near the ancient Roman road connecting Trier to Cologne. The site underwent significant changes over subsequent centuries.

The chapel serves as a focal point for the local community, used for personal prayer and religious celebrations. Visitors can observe how traditional practices remain woven into the spiritual life of those who gather here.

The chapel remains open to visitors throughout the day for quiet reflection and prayer. The surrounding area offers pleasant walking paths if you wish to explore the neighborhood further.

The interior features neo-Gothic furnishings from the late 1800s, including the high altar and wooden seating. These elements reveal how the space evolved to meet the spiritual needs of worshippers over time.
