Allerheiligenbergkapelle, Gothic Revival chapel on hill in Lahnstein, Germany

The Allerheiligenbergkapelle rises 170 meters above Niederlahnstein with its choir tower and Gothic Revival architectural elements facing the Rhine and Lahn valleys.

The chapel, constructed between 1895 and 1901 under architect Max Meckel, stands as a memorial for soldiers who died in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871.

The interior features a neo-Gothic high altar by sculptor Caspar Weis, depicting central scenes from Saint Dominic's life with detailed craftsmanship.

Visitors can access the chapel through a 1200-meter pilgrimage path, constructed between 1854 and 1886, with several small rosary chapels along the route.

Under the chapel lies a grotto containing a Holy Sepulcher, crafted by Caspar Weis and funded by the Christian Sebastian Schmidt entrepreneurial family.
