Kapelle auf dem Fürstenberg, Renaissance chapel on Fürstenberg mountain in Ense, Germany.
The single-nave chapel stands at 279 meters above sea level, featuring a western tower and baroque altar with distinct architectural elements.
First documented in 1429, the chapel underwent multiple restorations, including major repairs in 1610 by Prince-Bishop Theodor von Fürstenberg following regional conflicts.
The chapel houses religious artworks including a Madonna statue from 1710, a Saint Liborius figure from 1739, and a Saint Lambert statue from the 19th century.
Visitors can reach the chapel through several marked hiking trails that lead through the surrounding forest and former castle grounds.
The chapel bell, weighing 70 kilograms and installed in 1826, dates back to between the 11th and 14th centuries.
