Kalvarienbergkapelle

The Calvary Chapel in Mauthausen:

If you come to Mauthausen from the west, you can see the yellow building of the chapel from afar above the right-hand edge of the Bettelberg quarry.

The following is noted in LIBER VITAE (Book of the Holy Life) in 1728: "ITEM: the beautiful Calvariberg was erected this year by H Josephi Pöhm and his wife Guettherzigkeith".
The baroque building with a floor plan of 515 x 564 cm has a barrel vault with 4 spandrels, a north-facing hipped saddleback roof with tiled roofing and a patriarchal cross. Through a double-leaf gate with a basket arch you enter an interior with benches, which shows a baroque crucifixion group in the front area.
Owner: Market town of Mauthausen - since 1991.
