Jules Leclercq built a new chapel in 1913 along the new path that was created from Vogelzangstraat outside his estate. This chapel also fell into disrepair and was demolished. A new chapel was built in 1954 on the left side of this path and dedicated to Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception. Pastor De Clerck was the initiator, Albert Neys the architect, and the firm Aenspeck took care of the execution. It is a chapel made of broken stone with frames, roof tiles, and a ridge cross in blue hardstone. The front and side windows have a pointed arch. The gable roof is covered with slates. The inscription reads '1954 Year of Mary'. In 1978, the chapel was restored by Pastor Gijsbrechts.
