Chapelle de la trinité
À propos
In 1737 a small oratory was built and dedicated to the Holy Trinity. The statues of St Nicolas and St Eloi were stolen in 1974. This chapel was built by the Carthusian monks of Rettel for their convenience when they came to visit their properties, in particular at the mills of Ehlig and Oligmühle, over which they had the sole crimes while the rest of Alzing belonged to the abbey of Bouzonville for the middle and low justice and to the lordship of Bérus for the high justice. During the war from 1939 to 1945 the mill and the chapel were very damaged and the chapel was saved only in 1960 by a railroad worker who restored it with volunteers. The miracle happened again in 1990 and the chapel was again restored by volunteers.
The stained glass windows were made in 1954 by young people from the village and were later restored by a glass artist from Wallerfangen.
