At the end of Waldbreitbach in the direction of Hausen is the Kreuzkapelle on the banks of the Wied. Built in 1694 by the pastor Frederici. At times it served as a residence for the founders of the Franciscan Order, Anton Weber from Roßbach and Peter Wirth from Niederbreitbach, as well as Margarete Flesch, the later mother Rosa, founder of the Order of the Franciscan Sisters of Waldbreitbach.
In 1925 the cross chapel became the property of the Hausen Franciscan Brothers and is used for church services.
