    New little chapel, even open, which unfortunately is rarely the case.
    Translated by
    This chapel stands at the entrance to Böserscheidegg (not in Forst near the Alpine outdoor pool!), coming from Scheidegg.

    Built in 1710

    St. Catherine helps with migraines and other illnesses. She defends Christian values against "learned unbelief":

    Commemoration days: November 25 (Catherine) and June 13 (Anthony)

    The two saints of the chapel in Böserscheidegg are popular folk saints of the Catholic Church. Saint Anthony is invoked when someone has lost something and is desperately searching for it. The Allgäu folklore says:

    Holy Anthony, you brave man,
    I've lost something, lead me there!

    Hiking

    The chapel is clearly visible about 200m after the Alpenfreibad on the right-hand side of the road.
