The little saint's house "Zum Blutschwitzenden Heiland" in the Riemeske in Oberkirchen was built in 1843 by the Schmallenberg sculptor Kaspar Hamm (also known as Floigen Kapser). In the following years, he decorated it with the figures "Blood-sweating Savior" and "Angel handing over the chalice". The two figures were removed in the early 1970s for security reasons and kept privately. In 1978, the chapel was transferred to the Catholic parish of St. Georg Grafschaft as the owner. In 1979, the current wooden sculpture "Blood-sweating Savior with chalice" was made by the Winkelmann sculpture workshop from Günne am Möhnesee. In 2013, a missing angel figure was purchased.
