Prayer chapel Arndorf

The prayer chapel Arndorf shows a kneeling Christ on the Mount of Olives deliberately not a crucifixion, but a Jesus who looks up to the cross and thus accepts the cross. “I go my own way and won't let myself be put off”. The chapel was planned by Karl Pfeifer, the Jesus was carved from linden wood from the adjacent Arndorf Forest by Hans Pendl. In Arndorf, formerly called Aribendorf, there was a wayside shrine since 1755 and the Christianization of our area is said to have started here. In 2016, this original wayside shrine was torn down and rebuilt and inaugurated by the Arndorf residents with great diligence and countless hours. The bishop's cross and the memorial to the fallen local residents were taken from the original cross and attached to the rear of the new chapel.
