St. Felicitas stands in Reutles, a district of Nuremberg in Bavaria's Middle Franconia, as an Evangelical Lutheran chapel. Its protected monument status reflects a building whose nave and choir date from around 1370. Plastered ashlar masonry forms the rectangular structure beneath a shared hipped roof. A square tower joined the north side during the fifteenth century.

The tower's third floor was rebuilt in 1585 after destruction during the Second Margrave War. A bell cast in 1765 hangs there today. Inside, a cross-ribbed choir vault carries painted symbols of the Evangelists, while wooden beams span the nave. Galleries occupy two sides of the interior.

A winged altar gives the chapel its most distinctive artistic focus, with Michael Wolgemut's central panel showing the Crucifixion. One wing depicts Felicitas with her sons, and the predella shows Mary and the child among the Fourteen Holy Helpers. A wooden Saint Mauritius has stood beside the pulpit since 1905. The patronage gallery also holds a small organ installed in 1977, with four registers.
