St. Josef is a Roman Catholic chapel in Dennenberg, a district of Ottobeuren in Bavaria’s Unterallgäu region. The chapel stands in Germany’s Bavarian landscape. Built in 1912, it has protected-monument status and belongs to the area’s architectural heritage. Its interior brings together religious artworks from several centuries.

A wooden figure of the Virgin Mary dates from the second quarter of the fifteenth century. The carving preserves a medieval image of Mary. A depiction of Saint Sebastian dates from about 1470 to 1480, making it the oldest dated work recorded here. Saint George belongs to the seventeenth century and adds another period to the collection. Together, these works place the chapel’s twentieth-century construction beside objects from medieval and early modern religious art. The contrast between the 1912 building and its older furnishings defines the place. The wooden Mary remains the clearest detail to remember.
