The chapel displays Russian folk architectural influences in its log cabin construction and carved wooden details. These elements remain visible today and shape the building's distinctive appearance.
The chapel is located in the Heimkehr district at Eichenweg 40/41. It remains active today and can be visited during regular opening times.
The chapel's interior contains hand-carved altars and artistic works created by imprisoned soldiers during their captivity. These works show the creative and spiritual expression of the prisoners during wartime.
