The chapel on the western edge of the village dates back to 1689. The north-facing chapel consists of a nave almost 12 metres long and 5.20 metres wide without side chapels and a choir closed on three sides.
Beschreibung
The chapel is open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
The chapel from 1689, located on the western edge of the village, was decorated by two different painters: the Benedictine monk Fridolin Eggert from Disentis created the altarpiece on the left side altar and probably the depiction of Joseph's death on the high altar. The ceiling painting in the choir and the depiction of the Seven Sorrows of Mary on the chancel arch were signed by Jakob Soliva from Trun in 1774.
A special feature is the glazed niche on the left choir wall with the elaborately carved acanthus frame. Behind glass is Mary with the Child, dressed in precious brocade robes.
In 1947, the chapel was badly damaged by fire and had to be repaired. At that time, it also received a new organ. In 1979 the organ fell victim to another fire. Generous donations from all over Switzerland made a further restoration possible, and in 1995 an unknown donor arranged for the purchase of a new organ.
