Windrather Kapelle, Protestant chapel in Velbert, Germany
Located in a rural area, the single-aisle chapel features three window axes with round arches and a sturdy west tower made of crushed stone.
The chapel dates back to the missionary work of Saint Swidbert from England during the transition from the 8th to the 9th century as Margarethenkapelle.
The chapel belongs to the Evangelische Kirchengemeinde Langenberg and continues to host monthly services while being a preferred location for wedding ceremonies.
The Neanderlandsteig hiking trail passes by the chapel, with routes ranging from 4.5 to 26 kilometers offering various levels of difficulty for visitors.
The tower underwent reconstruction between 1821 and 1823 after storm damage, and in 1969 received shingle cladding to protect against harsh weather conditions.
