St.-Maurus-Kapelle, Religious building in Beuron, Germany.

The St.-Maurus-Chapel features detailed paintings by artist Gabriel Wüger and showcases architectural elements characteristic of late 19th-century German religious structures.

Princess Katharina von Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen commissioned the chapel's construction between 1868 and 1870, with architect Desiderius Lenz leading the project.

The chapel established itself as the birthplace of the Beuron Art School, introducing a specific artistic style that influenced religious art across European monasteries.

Marked paths guide visitors through the surrounding Danube valley landscape to reach this cultural heritage monument in Baden-Württemberg.

The interior decoration combines traditional Christian imagery with Egyptian artistic influences, creating an unexpected fusion of ancient and religious aesthetics.
