Lorettokapelle (Rohr in Niederbayern)
The Loretto Chapel near Rohr is a building from the second half of the 17th century.
The subsequent hermitage was built around 1735. It connects to the chapel at a right angle. The hermitage seems to have served as a summer villa for the canons of Rohr .
The chapel is one of the common replicas of the Casa Sancta in Loreto . It is a rectangular chapel building with a steep, cranked gable roof . Above the west side with a pilaster structure there is a square roof turret on the cranked helmet roof .
The barrel vault of the interior is clad with clinker bricks. The small altar with two winding columns stands behind a lattice wall. A black figure of Mary with baby Jesus and scepter is in a shell niche; in the elevator between entablature vases an oval image of St. Anthony of Padua; a tabernacle with a cross on the cafeteria; Laterally rococo volutes with tendrils and latticework.
