Chapel of Saint Blaise

Chapel of Saint Blaise, Ruined chapel in Lužice, Czech Republic

The Chapel of Saint Blaise in Lužice is a half-ruined chapel above a spring northeast of the village. In the 2010s it is almost without roofing, its truss is missing, and the right wall has a one-metre-square opening. A spring with reputedly healing water is beside it; the water no longer rises through soil deposits, but the flowing spring can be heard.

A chapel on a small hill near Lužice, also linked to Dobrčice, was destroyed by Swedish troops during the Thirty Years' War. It was renewed, and a new chapel was built in 1778 and repaired in 1840. Around 1900, about a thousand pilgrims came each year; between 1945 and 1989 it was devastated.

The chapel is linked to Saint Blaise, patron against throat ailments, and pilgrims once came here seeking healing from the spring beside it. In the early 20th century around a thousand believers made the journey each year. The spring itself is now buried under soil, though the flowing water can still be heard.

The chapel stands roofless above a spring northeast of Lužice, with a one-metre-square opening in its right wall; there is no roof or truss, so it cannot be entered. The spring below is buried under soil, but the flowing water can still be heard.

The chapel is now a ruin: in the 2010s it had almost no roofing, its roof truss was gone, and a one-metre-square opening stood in the right wall. Beside it is a spring said to have healing water, now buried under soil, though the flowing water can still be heard.
