St. Antonius is a Roman Catholic chapel from the late 17th century in Kirchstetten , Upper Swabia , a district of Kammlach .
The heart of the hamlet situated chapel has two yokes with a semi-circle circuit. The wall is structured by Tuscan pilasters . There are narrow pilasters in the western corners and the end is divided into three axes. The arch is clumsily bricked. The two groin vaults have no straps. In the end, three caps with the warped tips touch each other at the top and are separated by irregularly widened straps. The transverse oval windows are high, only in the apex of the choir are they at normal height. There is a rectangular door south of the west axis. Two small square peep windows are let into the west wall. The outer has an axis-wise structure with pilaster strips over a cranked base. The double, carved eaves cornice is also cranked. The door is on the outside in an arched niche. The west wall is bordered by wide pilaster strips with pieces of cornice. There is a strong, grooved cornice on the sloping gable. The roof turret stands on a square base that protrudes slightly from the top of the gable on profiles. The octagonal upper part with narrow diagonal sides in the main sides has vertical oval openings. The eastern opening continues with cross-shaped slits of light in the two vertices. The reveals overlap laterally in the vertices. The chapel has a profiled eaves cornice on the base and top as well as a sheet-covered pointed helmet.
The wooden altar dates from the end of the 17th century and is marbled brown with gold decoration. Putti, which probably date from the 18th century and were added later, sit on the curved segment arch pieces of the two-column structure. The altarpiece, created around 1900, has a rounded arch and shows Saint Anthony. The two-pillar excerpt has an excerpt from the end of the 17th century with the theme of the Annunciation . The segment gable pieces have a central cornice top.
The pews in the chapel with curved plank cheeks probably date from the 18th century. The wooden figures in the chapel are all set. On the pilasters on both sides of the altar are St. John Nepomuk and St. Leonhard , both of which were created around 1720. Angels from the first half of the 18th century kneel on the capitals of the pilasters on either side of the altar. The crucifix dates from around 1520 to 1530. A votive picture painted on wood with the inscription “Anno 1742 Uerlobt diße Taffel Hie Hero Antoniu / Leinauer from the upper mountain Negs Loppenhausen / Uor a sick Uich says god eternal danck. 18. “. was refreshed in 1944.
