Chapel of Saint Anne, Chapel in Pelhřimovy, Czech Republic
The Chapel of Saint Anne is a small house of prayer located in central Pelhřimovy, built with stone walls and a simple interior layout. A wooden altar dedicated to Saint Anne forms the focal point of the main space.
The structure was built in the 19th century as a place of worship for travelers and residents of nearby villages. It formed part of a network of small chapels established between settlements throughout the region.
The chapel served as a stopping point for pilgrims traveling through the region, where they would pause to pray. Today, the simple wooden benches and small bell still reflect this tradition of gathering.
The building is accessible year-round and sits within walking distance from central Pelhřimovy. Nearby hiking trails are clearly marked, and parking spaces are available in the vicinity for those visiting.
Inside sits a hand-forged iron cross from the original chapel, evidence of metalwork craftsmanship from centuries past. This piece silently testifies to the initial construction that took place nearly 200 years ago.
