The Sassenhäuser chapel is a jewel in the Wittgensteiner Land region and is preserved and maintained by the villagers on a voluntary basis. The galleries and stalls are richly decorated with carvings, as is the half-timbering, and are particularly worth seeing!

In 1705, the carpenter Mannes Riedesel built a new chapel for the village, as the old one must have been dilapidated.


A single-nave church was built with an apse to the east, but without a recognizable choir room. At first, the pulpit was probably on the south side, where a wall ledge can still be seen today. Anyone who entered the chapel at that time and had to tilt their head due to the low entrance door looked directly at the pulpit.


The pews must also have faced east-west. Their inscriptions got mixed up when the pews were rebuilt, as they were simply sawn up and reinstalled facing north-south.


Part of the interior was partitioned off by a wall. The resulting room served as a schoolroom until the beginning of the 20th century. A separate school building was then erected.


In 1903, Kaiser Wilhelm II donated a new bell to the chapel. Three years later, a long-awaited harmonium was finally acquired.


After the 200th anniversary celebrations, the chapel became the property of the parish. Until then, it had belonged to the political community.
