Alpine chapel near See
Lourdes Chapel
The original Lourdes Chapel, a simple, building lovingly created from wood, was once situated at edge of the forest at the Schusterhaus Village. In 1976 the chapel was restored by the "Seaber" Youth (young farmers). After a rock slide in 1992 the chapel had to be replaced by a protective dam, but was built anew and integrated into the dam.
Oberhaus Chapel
Oberhaus is a small village in See, consisting of just one farm and one chapel. On the inside the chapel has a circa 250-year-old statue of Mary by the sculptor Johann Ladner, who also created the larger-than-life-sized wood figurines of the Kerker Chapel in Kappl.
Habigen Chapel
The chapel in Habigen was built in 1882 and is home to a very beautiful picture of Holy Mary, which was donated by a great son of the See municipality, the painter Mathias Schmid. The chapel was dedicated to the Virgin Mary and St John of Nepomuk and has a beautiful small altar which was made from a sketch of a town councillor of Innsbruck, Friedrich Maurer.
