The building is registered under the monument number D-5-77-161-65 as an architectural monument in the Bavarian monument list. The chapel is not to be confused with the St. Marien village chapel in the Pleinfeld district of Mannholz and the St. Marien village chapel in the Pleinfeld district of Kleinweingarten .
The chapel dedicated to Mary stands in the middle of the hamlet near the property at number 4 at a height of 418 meters above sea level . The chapel is a saddle roof building with an entrance porch and Art Nouveau door and a roof turret with a small onion hood and was built in 1912 by the Gündersbach village community.
The altar from the early 18th century and several angel statuettes come from the village church of Pfraunfeld . A protective mantle Madonna was carved in 1948 and replaced an Immaculata figure on loan from the Teutonic Order Church of St. Vitus in St. Veit . An oil painting of St. Wendelin from 1798 was restored in 1920 and donated to the chapel. An Eternal Light was acquired in 1920 and re-silvered in 1946.
