AB The Chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk in Bystrice near Hroznetin (Karlovy Vary region), a Baroque structure from 1769-1772, was in the state of neglect for a long time. Moreover, it was erroneously called Seitner Chapel for many years. The contribution presents the results of the standard non-destructive building archaeological analysis during the preparation for the chapel's reconstruction, and the probe research and operative documentation of facades, carried out during the perimeter shell restoration. It aims to present the story - to some extent a model story - of small-scale sacral architecture of the Baroque period ranging from the founder's first impulse and motivation to the risk of disappearance and subsequent restoration of the monument.
