St.-Anna-Kapelle, Heritage church in Weiden, Kürten, Germany.

St.-Anna-Kapelle is a Roman Catholic chapel in Weiden, built of rubble stone, measuring 7.15 metres long and 5 metres wide. It has a choir with a three-sided apse, two arched windows on each long side, and a small bell turret on the roof. The interior holds a neo-baroque altar with figures of Saint Anne and the Virgin Mary, a Pietà, and wall paintings of Mary with the Christ Child and Saint Joseph.

A document of 28 June 1507 records that Cologne auxiliary bishop Dietrich Wichwael consecrated the chapel on 17 May 1507, built on donated land by the Kürtener vice-curate Sebastianus Vette after his pilgrimage to Düren. A fire destroyed it in 1842; Pastor Tuchscherer re-consecrated the rebuilt chapel on 16 June 1845. A bombing raid on Weiden on 10 February 1945 damaged it, and the interior was refurnished in 1947.

The chapel functions as a place of worship where visitors can see handcrafted windows depicting holy figures created by a local artist. Inside, the simple construction and quiet setting create a reflective space that draws both the faithful and those curious about religious art.

The chapel sits on Kölner Straße and is easily accessible, with its simple exterior visible from the street. A visit requires no special preparation and visitors can view the interior and windows during daylight hours.

The chapel's two east windows were designed by Kürtener artist Franz Toenniges for the 500th anniversary in 2007; they show Saint Hedwig, patroness of Silesia, and Anna selbdritt. Glass artist Maria Schätzmüller-Lukas executed them. Toenniges came from Silesia, which explains the choice of Hedwig.
