Wallfahrtskapelle Hausenborn, Medieval pilgrimage chapel ruins in Isenburg, Germany

The Hausenborn Chapel, constructed from quarry stone in Gothic style, measures 23 meters long and 8 meters wide with an east-facing choir section.

The chapel was established in 1441 by the Lords of Isenburg-Grenzau and served as a pilgrimage destination until its abandonment in 1788.

The chapel features a terracotta Pietà, measuring 45 centimeters high and 60 centimeters wide, which represents the traditional devotion to the Virgin Mary.

The chapel ruins stand approximately one kilometer southwest of Isenburg and can be accessed through multiple hiking trails of varying difficulty levels.

The site contains foundation walls of a potential church tower, uncovered during renovations in the 1990s, matching a historical woodcut from 1772.
