Garnet Chapel

Finkenberg, Austria

The Garnet Chapel, also known as the Capella Granata (Granatkapelle), is a Catholic chapel situated at the Penken saddle (the Penkenjoch) near the Penken. It is northeast of an artificial lake and forms part of the community of Finkenberg in the Zillertal valley. The valley in the district of Schwaz is in the state (Bundesland) of Tyrol. The chapel belongs to the parish of Finkenberg and by extension to the Deanery of Fuegen-Jenbach and thus to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Innsbruck. The chapel is dedicated to Engelbert Kolland, a friar of the Franciscan Order (OFM), who was beatified on 10 October 1926. Father Kolland was born in Ramsau, a small village in the Zillertal. Kolland will be canonised by Pope Francis on October 20, 2024, among the 14 blesseds.
