Alexiuskapelle, Baroque chapel in central Paderborn, Germany.

The Alexiuskapelle features a central octagonal structure topped with a baroque dome and lantern, built with Flemish-inspired brick architecture.

Built between 1670 and 1673, the chapel replaced an earlier structure from 1017, and received its baroque dome addition between 1680 and 1692.

The chapel served the Russian Orthodox community from 1998 to 2018, hosting services dedicated to the Holy Mother Icon Feodorovskaya.

The building stands near the Abdinghof Church and Paderborn Cathedral, making it accessible for visitors exploring the city center.

Three original statues survived the 1945 destruction, including representations of Saint Meinolf and Saint Liborius.
