The chapel is locked and can only be viewed from the outside.

This chapel, located on the oldest path to Landau, is also called Loreto, Roman, or Schmied Chapel. The year 1508 on the lintel is the oldest evidence of a chapel in Herxheim. Out of gratitude for his recovery from a serious illness in Loreto, the blacksmith Hans Georg Römer had the chapel restored in 1661. The people of Herxheim successfully opposed an ordered demolition of the chapel in 1777.

Furnishings:
Late Gothic frescoes from the 16th century: Christ as Savior of the World, together with the apostles; from the 17th century are the crucifixion scene, the depiction of the Römer donor family and the then-pastor Trittheim. Baroque altar with Madonna statue and putti (partly new acquisitions after theft).
