The Catholic Chapel of Our Lords Ruh in Reichertsried , a district of the Münsterhausen community in the Swabian district of Günzburg in Bavaria , was built in the 1720s by the Barons of Heidenheim. The chapel in a depression in the plateau, east of the lower village of Münsterhausen, is a protected architectural monument .

The nine-meter-long and four-and-a-half-meter-wide hall with a semicircular closed choir and roof turret faces south. It has a painted pilaster structure , which was renewed during the renovation in 1982/83.

The room, which is flat over a cove, with a retracted, basket-arched triumphal arch and apsidal choir closure, has a folk decor from the 18th century. Worth mentioning is the wooden figure of the Seated Savior in Sorrows in the altar as well as a Madonna and Child (around 1500).
