The small longitudinal Baroque cemetery chapel with a semicircular conclusion and rounded corners in the facade dates back to 1757. The interior has a vaulted ceiling and the rectangular plan is terminated by a semicircle in the southern part. Inside, there is a wooden Cross with a corpus of Christ, dating from about the 18th century in a classical Baroque design with an axe-shaped figure with a head with a rayed halo. There are also statues of Our Lady of Lourdes and St. John, both made of polychrome plaster around the beginning of the 20th century. Below them is the altar mensa. It is a simple wooden 'table' in the form of a tapering plinth in front with a relief of a cross dating from around the 19th century. The altar mensa, or the Lord's Table (mensa Domini), is the main, essential part of the altar in Christian churches. It is characterized as the place of sacrifice and is usually covered with a white tablecloth.
