Chapel of Virgin Mary, Neoclassical chapel in Snina, Slovakia.

The Chapel of Virgin Mary displays columns and decorative elements typical of 19th-century neoclassical religious structures in eastern Slovakia.

Stefan Rholl commissioned this chapel in 1842 as a resting place for his family members, incorporating a tomb beneath the building structure.

The interior preserves a Hungarian inscription dedicated to Katherine Rholl, reflecting the multicultural heritage of the Snina region in the 1800s.

Located at coordinates 48.9917°N and 22.1382°E, the chapel stands within the cemetery grounds and maintains regular visiting hours throughout the year.

Thieves targeted the family tomb beneath the chapel during World War II, leading to additional security measures for this cultural monument.
