The Chapel of St. Roch is a German pilgrimage chapel, dedicated to Saint Roch, located on the Rochusberg southeast of Bingen am Rhein.
The first building, dating to the plague year of 1666, was destroyed during the campaigns of 1795 in the French Revolutionary Wars of the Rhine valley. The second was built 1814 in the wake of a typhoid fever epidemic brought by soldiers returning from the Battle of Leipzig of the Napoleonic Wars. Goethe wrote a description of its dedication ceremony. This building's flèche was hit by lightning in 1889 and the chapel burned down to the brickwork.
