Malbork, PL
St Anne's Chapel in Malbork Castle was the burial chapel of the great Teutonic masters. Desecrated during the Swedish Wars in the 17th century, the chapel was eventually given to the Jesuit order and was used as their burial place in the 18th century. After 1780 the chapel was taken over by the parish clergy and between 1821 and 1823 it was renovated and restored. The building was again completely revitalised and the interior was altered by Conrad Steinbrecht in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In 1945, during the fighting for the castle, the vault of the chapel collapsed after being hit by artillery fire from the Red Army.
St Anne, GG
St Anne's Church in its present form owes much to a restoration by George Gilbert Scott, a renowned Victorian building architect. This renovation was completed in 1850. During the Second World War, when the town was under German occupation and all its citizens had left the town, the church was used as a shop, and its premises were damaged. After the war, the church underwent a major restoration, completed in 1953.

Leuven, BE
In 1299, the clergy of the Sint-Pieterskerk (St. Peter’s Church) built a chapel at the foot of the Ramberg, in the center of Louvain. After the university of Louvain was established in 1425, the Artes faculty became the owner of the chapel. From the 16th century onwards, there was a worship of Sint-Antonius van Egypte (Saint Anthony of Egypt). Because of his popularity, the chapel was called Sint-Antoniuskapel (Saint Anthony’s Chapel). In 1617, the chapel was constructed in the late Gothic style as it is now. Restorations took place in the 18th century. In 1797, the French administration closed the chapel and it could be rented by religious groups from 1847 to 1853. In 1860, the chapel was sold and bought by the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. They renovated the chapel and opened it in 1861. In 1936, the remains of the most famous Belgian missionary and saint, Jozef De Veuster, were transferred from Molokai (Hawaii) and placed in the crypt of the chapel. In 1960-1961, the chapel was rebuilt by the Congregation.
