During function of Viktor Kallay, a chapel was built in Nimnica at Púchovská parish and the chapel was after project completion in 1941 built up in a year and a half time. The capacity of the chapel is 40 people and masses were served in this chapel only once a year - on the feast of Pentecost. The chapel was replaced in the nineties by a priestly house with a chapel of Fatima Virgin Mary which foundation stone was consecrated by Pope Ján Pavol II. in April 1990 during his visit of Slovakia. Storey building with a turret has in addition to chapel premises also three bedrooms and a dayroom.
