It is one of the few wooden chapels in the district and was built around 1800.

Inside the chapel were the carved wooden figures of the baby Jesus and the apostles Peter and Paul. They were stolen. The owner and sacristan of the chapel made the figures again in the last century. The shrine with the Infant Jesus of Prague did not fall victim to the robbery.
