Beschreibung

Architectural history: According to the inscription, the chapel was built according to a vision of the Mother of God given to John of Giuf on January 8, 1622 at this place. Consecrated on 13 June 1630 with an altar in honour of Mary, Magdalene and Martha. The existing chapel, however, seems to go back to a new building consecrated on 8 July 1672 in honour of St. Maria zum Schnee. Indulgences were granted to her in 1750 and 1755. Specifications: Chapel facing south-east with recessed choir closed on three sides, barrel vault with buttresses. The ship is divided into two parts by a belt. Continuous cornice. Stitch-arched windows. The entrance is on the northwest front. Murals: The vault zone is decorated with handicraft descriptions. Equipment: The high altar is a structure of two pairs of winding, slanted columns and a curved, openwork gable. In the niche modern figure. The side altars are similar to the high altar, 1679.  In the choir a small carved processional figure. A casula made of white silk, 18th century. Bells: With inscriptions, 1788.
