The former hospice, of which this chapel is a part, was built in several phases. This remarkable chapel was erected around 1865 during the construction of the third section. The enormous dome and the late neoclassical interior of the chapel make it a particularly interesting and unique example of architecture in the region. Even in later expansions of the hospital complex, the choice was always made to preserve the chapel and its entrance, precisely because of its unique architectural character.

Regarding the chapel's interior, the unique 19th-century neo-Gothic high altar deserves special mention. The chapel was decorated with various polychrome statues and their plinths, fourteen paintings of the Way of the Cross, and a painting of the patron saint of the chapel and the hospice. All these decorations have since disappeared. Still visible, however, are the two stained-glass windows from 1900 in the choir and above one of the sacristy doors. The rood screen is a large gallery protected by a wooden balustrade. It overlooks part of the sanctuary and is accessible from the upper floor. The entrance portal and the monumental staircase of the old hospice are a beautiful example of the golden age of iron in the second half of the 19th century.
