Beautiful chapel above Altstätten. A beautiful, quiet place with a fantastic view of the Rhine Valley and Altstätten.

Hiking

The forest chapel was built in 1477 by the people of Altstätten on a plot of land in the forest as the “Hofstatt Unserer Lieben Frauen Capelle”, which became a popular pilgrimage destination. Altstätten is located in the canton of St. Gallen in the Rhine Valley.
