First mentioned in a document in 1535 as the "Chapel of the Holy Cross", "Heylig Kreuz or Zickel Capel" and recorded as dilapidated in 1720. It was probably named after St. Cyriacus. Further history unclear. In 1973, the Gothic ruin was repaired to protect it from further decay.
Architectural style: Cylindrical west tower gradually tapering on three sides over a slanted base, octagonal top floor, possibly added later, with four rectangular windows in the main axes
The interpretation as a church ruin is not entirely undisputed.
