Kapelle Zur Not Gottes, Chapel in Auerbach, Germany

The Kapelle Zur Not Gottes stands on a hilltop northeast of Auerbach, featuring granite construction and traditional German architectural elements.

Originally constructed in the first half of the 13th century as a pilgrimage church, the chapel contained a sacred image of Christ praying at the Mount of Olives.

The chapel hosts regular ecumenical outdoor services on Ascension Day, bringing together both Catholic and Protestant congregations from the surrounding communities.

The chapel includes a modern columbarium established in 2010 and serves as a venue for funeral services and wedding ceremonies throughout the year.

A spring near the chapel, known as the Noth-Gottes-Brunnen, made this location a water sanctuary in medieval times.
