Chapel of St. On the pilgrimage to Marianka, Urban was built for 100 gold coins by Matej Uzeroczy, a parish priest from Stupava, in 1705 from his own resources. He also laid a foundation for the chapel for its maintenance and Mass service on the feast of St. Urbana. The donor Latin inscription with a chronogram has not been preserved in the chapel, but its wording is known from the canonical business minutes from 1782.

After repairs in the past, the chapel has changed its appearance. Repairs that have been made in the new era are known. In 1951, Valent Bubnič repaired the truss. In 1957, they installed iron bars instead of wooden doors. In the years 1967-8 it was re-plastered. In 2013, the Municipal Food Association had the chapel restored by restoration procedures to its original condition, associated with landscaping. They removed the cement screed from the chapel and left the dry-laid stones on the pavement, discovering a niche of the Holy Sepulcher under the altar table. On the side walls, they removed the secondary masonry from the original entrances. There were no bars in the original chapel, but they were installed during the restoration to protect the interior. The restored chapel was consecrated by the Dean of Stupava, Felix Mikula, on August 17, 2013.
