Wallfahrtskapelle Maria Elend, Mountain chapel in Lend, Austria

The Maria Elend Chapel stands at 1125 meters above sea level near Embach, featuring a stone statue from 1768 and seating for 20 people.

In the 16th century, Ursula Penninger constructed the original chapel after her daughter was found alive following a three-day disappearance.

The chapel celebrates its main religious festival on September 15th, commemorating the Seven Sorrows of Mary, with additional ceremonies on July 2nd.

The chapel remains open for prayers throughout the day and connects to the Embacher main road through a small access path.

A spring called Augenbründl near the chapel attracts visitors seeking its water, traditionally used for eye ailments since the 18th century.
