Drüggelter Kapelle, Religious chapel in Möhnesee, Germany

The Drüggelter Kapelle is a chapel on the Schulte-Drüggelte farm estate between Delecke and Körbecke, north of the Möhnesee. Its white outer walls form a dodecagon, with a slate-covered roof crowned by a small bell turret; a porch and an apse break the symmetry. Inside the roughly 11 m wide room, 16 columns stand in two rings, the outer one of 12 columns, and carry a cross vault.

The structure dates to the 12th century and first appeared in written records in 1217 in connection with a journey to the Holy Land. Its origins lie in a period when the region was influenced by local noble families.

The chapel serves today as a venue for chamber concerts and hosts the Drüggelter Kunst-Stückchen music festival throughout the year. This use connects the site's religious character with contemporary cultural events.

The chapel stands on the grounds of Hof Schulte-Drüggelte, about 500 m north of the Möhnesee's northern shore and roughly 260 m above sea level on a ridge between Delecke and Körbecke. Visitors reach it on foot from the surrounding farm tracks; the entrance is through the small porch on the front facade. A stone bench runs around the outer wall, and the interior is entered through the dark paneled door beneath the gable window.

During 1930s renovations, fragments of original wall painting were found, and beneath wooden fittings a large oak dugout chest emerged; dendrochronology in the early 1970s dated its making to about 1172. The chest is among the oldest dated objects linked to the chapel.
