Notre-Dame (German: Our Lady) is a Roman Catholic chapel in the Alsatian parish of Dambach-la-Ville in the Bas-Rhin department . It has been classified as a Monument historique since 1930 .

history

The late Gothic Liebfrauenkapelle was mentioned for the first time in 1454. The church is marked with the year 1479. The simple single-nave building has a flat roof and closes in the east with a drawn-in, just closed choir. The number 1625 can be found on the bell ridge, which should indicate a renovation of the church. A chaplain provided pastoral care at the chapel until 1693, after which it served a hermit. After the French Revolution, it was sold as a state property in 1796 and is still privately owned today. Wall paintings were found in 1860. In 2018, the chapel was completely renovated. The south portal and the tracery of the choir window are designed in the style of Flamboyant Gothic .
