Kapelle, Chapel in Bad Kissingen, Germany.

The Marienkapelle stands with its baroque tower and sandstone walls near Lake Liebfrauensee, featuring detailed architectural elements from the 18th century.

Documented in 1348, the chapel received extensive renovations under architect Balthasar Neumann between 1734 and 1738, transforming its structure.

The chapel serves as a station along the Franconian Path of Our Lady, maintaining its role as a religious center for local celebrations.

The chapel includes an adjacent cemetery that expanded in 1855, providing a historical record through its preserved inscriptions and monuments.

During the Austro-Prussian War of 1866, the chapel grounds became a battlefield, leading to numerous war casualties being interred in its cemetery.
