Marienkapelle Steiningloh, Religious chapel in Hirschau, Germany.

The Marienkapelle Steiningloh features Romanesque architectural elements with a bell tower and stands near the center of the village.

Construction of the chapel began in 1908 after local authorities determined the previous structure needed replacement, but World War I delayed its completion until 1922.

The altar displays a painting inspired by Lucas Cranach the Elder's Maria Hilf, representing the connection to traditional Bavarian religious art.

The chapel underwent extensive renovations in 2017, including restoration of the roof structure, bell tower, and ceiling according to monument preservation guidelines.

A memorial plaque inside commemorates missionary father Josef Dotzler from Steiningloh, who died in a traffic accident in New Guinea in 1984.
