Visit the historic Our Lady, Mother of Mercy Chapel at Kneipp Spring.  Built in 1916 to serve the patients and the religious sister running this sanitarium if has some of the finest stained glass windows in the world.

The West Wing of the chapel is home to the statue of Our Lady of America.  This life-sized image of Our Lady, the Immaculate Virgin, Patroness of America welcomes pilgrims.   This image of Our Lady was inspired in prayer by Sr. Mary Ephrem in 1956 while she was stationed at Kneipp Springs.

While there have been some reports of healing, both physical and spiritual, through Our Lady’s intercession, most pilgrims receive refreshments, consolation and peace.

Come to see the Lily of Purity which she wishes to offer to each of her children.
