Chapelle Saintes-Anne-et-Brigitte de Stralsund, Medieval chapel in Stralsund, Germany.
The Saints Anne and Bridget Chapel is a brick religious building constructed in Stralsund during the 15th century with distinctive red masonry. The structure displays typical northern German gothic architecture with characteristic proportions and decorative details.
Construction of the chapel began in 1470 under Mayor Otto Voge's patronage. The building was subsequently consecrated and served as a place of worship and religious gathering for centuries.
The chapel honors two female saints, reflecting the veneration of women in medieval religious life. Visitors today can observe how the interior design expresses this spiritual devotion.
The chapel now functions as an event venue and is primarily used for weddings and receptions. Visitors should check in advance whether the building is accessible, as private events are held regularly.
The building was deconsecrated in 1988 and underwent extensive renovation work from 2003 to 2008. This transformation allowed the historic structure to be repurposed as a modern event space while preserving its character.
