Chapel of Saint Rosalia

Rozálie) is an early baroque church in the Lamač borough of Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, built at the end of the 17th century.

The people of Bratislava built the chapel out of gratitude for the end of an outbreak of plague in the years 1678 - 1679 which had a toll of 12 thousand dead.

A tradition evolved over time when each year on Saint Rosalia day on September 4, there used to be pilgrimages to this chapel.

Today, there are local festivities (Slovak: hody) at this day and there is a special mass celebrated in the chapel.

In 2017, the Slovak Roman Catholic Church started negotiations with the city of Bratislava to buy and reconstruct the chapel.
