The Gotthard chapel on Gelles Kirchweg is from 1722 (the Gelles Kirchweg led from the Gelleshof in Kehn to the church in Vorst). Gotthard, i.e. St. Gotthard, but has been celebrated in Vorst since 1131. The Vorster received relics of the saint from Cologne Archbishop Friedrich I. It is interesting to know that not only the Gotthard Pass is named after the Hildesheim bishop, but also this small chapel and the parish church. Gotthardus was known for his humble lifestyle and cheerfulness. That's a good example, even today.
