context_section_description: Information text, available in the chapel:
  The desire for peace, born of the horrors of two world wars, was the motive for the construction of this chapel. In many hours of self-performance the 260 residents of the hamlet Alst and some friends created the monument, which was inaugurated in 1967. 1988 donated the spouses Erich and Gabriele Büttner the crucifix in the middle of the front wall. The Cross is assisted by a statue of the Madonna—the Queen of Peace. The group of figures in between should tell us: 'Join hands to peace'. A stele on the left wall, built in 1985, depicts the Annunciation and the Nativity.
