The chapel was built in 1693 by Servatius Ignatius Engel of Engelsfluss, owner of Mnisek chateau. It was inspired by a cave chapel in Aix-en-Provence, France, and the interior imitates the Mary Magdalene's cave. The sculptures and paintings have been created by famous baroque artists: Jan Bendl and Karel Skreta. Later, a small franciscan monastery was established at the site.
In 1950s the site was endangered by iron ore mining under the hill and some of the buildings were damaged. The mining stopped in 1967 and the buildings were repaired in 1990s.
