history
The Lourdes Chapel was donated by Sulzthaler Kaspar Osmund Schmitt and his wife Margaretha on the occasion of their childless marriage and inaugurated on December 10, 1895. The area around the chapel was not forested when it was built. At Kaspar Osmund Schmitt's instigation, consecrated water from Lourdes was also brought to the Lourdes Chapel in stone jugs. Inside the chapel houses a plaque in honor of the donors.
In 1999 the chapel received a new exterior facade and a new interior after the windows had been replaced and the roof had been renovated.
