The St. Antonius Catholic Chapel is a listed church building at Rassenhöveler Straße 3 in Herzfeld , a village in the Lippetal municipality in the Soest district ( North Rhine-Westphalia ).

History and architecture

The previous building from 1835 went back to a plague chapel from the 14th century.

The neo-Gothic brick building on four axes, with a retracted polygonal closed choir , was built according to the name in 1889. The polygonal vestibule in the west was added in 1952. The exterior is structured by high pointed arch niches , friezes and narrow wall templates. A beamed ceiling was drawn into the interior. The neo-Gothic, carved altar and the stone stipes are remarkable . It was incorporated from the parish church of St. Ida in 1955 and was originally the repository of the Ida shrine.
