The chapel of St. Anthony of Padua in the hamlet of Ried-Brig was completed in 1653.
The chapel consists of a masonry building over a rectangular ground plan with a slightly indented choir with a triple closure. In the area of the right-hand choir a small roof flank tower was built with a tufa belfry and a pointed helmet. The simple wall construction of the hamlet chapel is typical of the time. The chapel served as a prayer room for the local population and formed the central point of the settlement.
