Highlight • Religious Site

Located in the middle of the Mönkeberger forest on the Stangenberg. Unfortunately always messed up by graffiti and filth, but still a worth seeing place.

The chapel

The chapel was built from field stones by Johannes Baumen in the mid-twenties. It served as a souvenir of grandmother Henriette and later as the final resting place for the Stubenrauch family. However, the urns were moved to the Kiel South Cemetery due to vandalism on the building in the 1970s.
