Situated in the Házsongárd Cemetery, the chapel serves the Lutheran community as a mortuary space and offices for the Házsongárdi Association. The preserved 19th‑century façade meets a new extension shaped by nearby tombs and the need for an outdoor gathering area. The building rises like a stone split by planes, echoing monumental tombs, with a belfry unfolding above the original gable and a descending roof that opens space for stairs leading to the columbarium.
