Marienkapelle, Catholic chapel on Kapellenberg hill in Hofheim am Taunus, Germany.
The Marienkapelle sits atop Kapellenberg hill, featuring traditional German ecclesiastical architecture with white exterior walls and a steep-pitched roof.
Built in 1667 following a vow by Hofheim citizens and pastor Joh. Gleidener during a pest outbreak, the chapel stands as protection against disease.
The chapel maintains a yearly tradition where citizens participate in a ceremonial procession to its summit every first Sunday of July.
Visitors can access the chapel during Sunday afternoons from 14:30 to 16:30 between May and September, with religious services held on Saturday mornings.
From the chapel grounds, visitors observe the complete panorama of the Rhein-Main plain, stretching across the regional landscape.
