Szent Karmellus-romkápolna - Gyöngyöshalász

From the chapel you can see a wonderful view of Gyöngyös and the villages at the foot of the Mátra.

I accidentally came across this place.

The Chapel of Our Lady of Carmel Hill was built in 1750 on the border of Gyöngyöshalász. The older ones know it as “Kárméluska”. It was demolished in 1781, rebuilt in 1794 by landlord Ferenc Hamar, with the help of Mihály Almásy, the lord of the area. In the 1970s, they still came here for a farewell holiday, after which they were in a neglected, ruined state. It was externally repaired in 2013 by the Foundation for the Rescue of the Carpathian Mountains, the local government and the parish. On July 14, 2013, Archbishop Csaba Ternyák of Eger dedicated it again, so Kárméluska shines in its old light. Parish: 3212 Gyöngyöshalász. Farewell: July 16 and close Sunday

What we learned about it (May 2021): A small chapel on the hillside planted with vines, with a beautiful view of Gyöngyös and Sár Hill. The chapel stands among the vineyards on the border of Gyöngyöshalász, built in 1750, and is known to the elders as Kárméluska. The building was built as the Chapel of Our Lady of Mount Carmel around 1750 and was demolished in 1781. It was rebuilt in 1794 by landlord Ferenc Hamar, with the help of Mihály Almásy, the lord of the area. In the crypt under the chapel, Jr. sought eternal peace. Mihály Almásy is an imperial and royal chamberlain. Kármélhegy was a place of pilgrimage, where the annual Feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary was held on July 16th. The feast of Our Lady of Carmel Hill is explained by a vision. The Virgin Mary, who appeared before St. Simon the Stock in England on July 16, 1251, accompanied by the angels, handed over a scapular (shoulder-shoulder). The characteristic brown scapular of the Carmelites has become a symbol over the centuries: its wearer escaped the fire of hell and received the grace of the Virgin Mary. In 2011, an intensive collaboration was launched to save it, which resulted in it. Dea Chapel is probably only occasional to visit. In front of the chapel stood an pulpit outdoors, with carved figural reliefs in Rococo style. Further afield, south of the chapel, is a stone cross corps.
