Kraxnerkapelle

St. Stefan ob Stainz

The chapel offers a breathtaking view of the Schilcherland.

The impressive Kraxner chapel stands on the edge of the forest and is decorated with beautiful figures. At the altar is the Mother of God with the baby Jesus. Above it the Lamb of God. Left: Saint Oswald, with ravens, one of the fourteen helpers in need, patron saint for cattle and against bad weather. Saint Oswald was killed in a battle in England in 642. Left of it: St. Joseph with child. Right side: Saint George and right of it Saint Anthony of Padua. The builder of the chapel, the cattle dealer Georg Schriebl, originally wanted to build the chapel in Langegg in 1860; after a dream, however, he chose today's place. A certificate on the wall confirms the festive consecration of the bells on November 6, 1886.
