The chapel is a place of pilgrimage. Pope Pius IX. in 1851 he granted seven-year indulgences to those believers who, on the feast of St. The Trinity in Dolné Orešany repents, confesses and st. by receiving reinforcements, they piously pray here for the unity of Christian rulers, for the elimination of delusions and for the elevation of St. Mothers of the Church.
In 1946 the chapel was restored and a year later a fence was built. In 1986, the interior was restored by home masters.
In the semicircle around the chapel, there are 14 "gods of flour" (small separate simple chapels) under the linden trees. There are wooden reliefs of individual stops of the Stations of the Cross (Calvary). The chapels were restored in the spring of 2008.
Next to the chapel there is a cross, which is a reminder of the cemetery spread around it, where the inhabitants were buried during the plague epidemic.
