The Käppele ('Little Chapel') is the commonly used name for the Wallfahrtskirche Mariä Heimsuchung ('Pilgrimage Church of the Visitation of Mary'), located on a hill above Würzburg, in Germany.

The church is located on the north-eastern slope of the 366 metre Nikolausberg, below the Frankenwarte [de] and above the left bank of the Main in the city of Würzburg, the capital of Lower Franconia in the north of Bavaria, Germany.

Balthasar Neumann, architect of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Würzburg Residence, then drew up plans for a new church which incorporated the older chapel as the Alte Gnadenkapelle.

The new chapel was officially inaugurated only on 21 September 1824, due to earlier disruptions caused by securalization of 1803.

[3][4] During the Bombing of Würzburg in World War II the chapel was damaged slightly.

[6] The interior features ceiling frescos by Matthäus Günther from 1752 and 1781 and stucco work by Johann Michael Feuchtmayer (the Younger).
