Kapelle Klein-Jerusalem, Religious chapel in Willich, Germany
The chapel contains two levels, with the lower crypt accessible by stairs and featuring replicas of the Bethlehem Nativity Grotto and Vynhoven's tomb.
In 1656, Pastor Gerhard Vynhoven initiated the construction of this chapel after experiencing conflicts and destruction during his service in Osterath.
The upper chapel displays a crucifixion group from the early 16th century and contains a scale reproduction of Christ's tomb with iron-wrought doors.
The chapel opens every second Sunday of the month from 14:00 to 16:00, with access signs posted from highway A44 at the Neersen exit.
Three hedges surround the pilgrimage chapel, mirroring the traditional column arrangement of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.
