Salmendinger Kapelle, Religious chapel on Kornbühl hill in Burladingen, Germany.

The Salmendinger Kapelle stands at 886 meters above sea level on the Kornbühl hill, featuring a Renaissance altar from the 17th century.

The chapel's first written record dates to 1507 when Peter Schweiher von Straßberg documented a donation request for the foundation on Kornbühl.

A path with 14 stations of the cross, constructed in 1886, leads to the summit where three crosses represent Mount Calvary.

The chapel now displays photographs instead of original religious statues following two break-ins in 1957 and 1974 when valuable figurines were stolen.

Among the stolen artifacts was a Madonna figure standing on a crescent moon, while the Saint Wendelin statue resurfaced in art trade in 1983.
