    The chapel, built in the 12th century, once belonged to Breitenstein Castle. The chapel is the only two-storey double chapel from the Romanesque era in the Upper Palatinate.

    Hiking

    The castle chapel in Breitenstein is absolutely worth seeing because of the two-storey construction. Next to the chapel there is a bench to enjoy the beautiful view.

    Simple chapel in Breitenstein from the 12th century, from the chapel you have a wonderful view of the surrounding area. Be sure to go up the few steps to the open chapel and enjoy the view.
