Kaplnka Panny Márie bola postavená v druhej polovici 18. storocia. Podla jednej povesti v roku 1709 tunajší Mariánsky obraz, ktorý bol známy aj v širšom okolí, slzil. Baroková mriežka oddelujúca svätynu je signovaná rokom 1780. Pod rokom je monogram Márie, jej iniciály sa nachádzajú aj na priecelí kaplnky. Pri kaplnke sa do roku 1866 nachádzal aj cintorín.

We can find the Saint Mary chapel, built around 1700, on the Šafárikova street.
According to the legend, the picture of Saint Mary in this chapel was raining tears in 1709. After this, the chapel was worshiped near and far. The year 1780 is engraved in the beautiful Baroque grillage of the window. Below the year, we can also find the letter M, the initial of Saint Mary.
The surrounding of the chapel used to be an old cemetery, which was abolished in 1866.
Some houses were built around the chapel at the beginning of last century, but they were destroyed by bombing during the WWII.
