The Seelenkapelle (Chapel of the Souls) is one of the few buildings in the center of Oberstdirf, which did not fall victim to the Great Fire of 1865. The chapel is located on the west side of the parish church - in the middle of the old abandoned cemetery - and has been used as a war memorial chapel since 1931. The entrance is therefore guarded by two martial soldiers. The chapel was probably built in the late 15th century. An "eternal light" was donated to it in 1504. In 1524 it was mentioned as an ossuary. The amazing paintings with the sculptures in the niches on the north wall were created in the middle of the 16th century. The impressive Pietà in the interior is dating back to the early 40s of the 20th century. The Seelenkapelle is of huge significance to the fallen soldiers from the war and is also considered as a memorial (PiP3). The chapel is the second oldest of the Oberstdorf chapels.

The Wurmlinger Kapelle - officially named Sankt-Remigius-Kapelle - is located on the top of the Kapellenberg (474 m). It is the landmark of the region. In 1050 a Romanesque burial chapel of the founder, Count Anselm von Calw was erected. A Gothic successor building burned down in 1644. The baroque chapel, which has been preserved until today, was built in 1680 and consecrated in 1685. It still has a Romanesque crypt from the early 12th century. The chapel is accessible from the village of Wurmlingen along a Way of the Cross, which overcomes a height difference of 130 meters. Around the chapel is a small village cemetery, where one has wonderful views over the village of Wurmlingen and the surrounding landscape.

Úbeda became more and more important during Moorish rule. The town was by Abd ar-Rahman II (822–852), who called it Medinat-Ubbadat Al-Arab (which means Úbeda of the Moors). The town was captured from the Moors in 1233 by King Fernado III. Úbeda (and neighboring city of Baeza) benefited from extensive patronage in the early 16th century, resulting in the construction of a series of Renaissance style palaces and churches. In 2003, UNESCO declared the historic cores and monuments a World Heritage Site. Although the ‘Sacra Capilla del Salvador del Mundo’ (Sacred Chapel of the Saviour)looks like a church, the building is a funerary monument and was created to be used as mausoleum of local nobility (nowadays there are religious services). Both interior and exterior are richly decorated; the main façade (picture) with relief work and statues. The building is considered to be one of the finest examples of Andalucian architecture from te Renaisance period. Construction of the chapel started in 1536 by the architect Diego de Siloé; a second phase, four years later, was directed by Andrés de Vandelvira. In 1559 it was consecrated.
