Lachtal Chapel

Oberwölz-Lachtal

A very special devotional chapel was planned by Baden architect Herbert Ortner around 1980. It was built by the Hirner carpentry firm from Oberwölz.

The unusual roof truss construction and the only 15 cm thin rounded side walls made of glued laminated spruce are striking. Large glass windows create a light-flooded atmosphere and provide an unobstructed view of the surroundings.
