Jakobskapelle in Miesenbach bei Birkfeld

A Place of Silence – the Jakob Chapel by Karl Milchrahm

Each and every one of us has a dream.
Karl Milchrahm from Miesenbach has fulfilled a very special one: his own chapel – right at his doorstep.

What began in 2014 as a small model at a scale of 1:5 became a reality just a year later. Through meticulous handwork, with great attention to detail and countless hours of effort, the Jakob Chapel made of wood emerged – a very personal treasure.

For Karl Milchrahm, it is “a resting place for body and soul.” And anyone who would like to see for themselves is warmly invited: The chapel is freely accessible during the day and can be visited at any time.

The path to it is just as idyllic as it is easy to find: From the Kreuzwirt at Berglerweg, follow the path towards Wildwiesenhof. After about 300 meters, a scale model of the chapel indicates the way – from there it is only about 650 meters to the Jakob Chapel, which rests above Poin in the landscape.
