Where can I find a picture of the chapel inside the Bavarian salt mine?

Question

Twenty years ago I went to Garmisch-Partenkirchen on a Girl Scout trip, we went to visit a salt mine.  We had wear special shirts and pants over our clothes, and we slid down a polished wooden ramp at one part of the tour.  There was also a brine lake inside the mountain that we crossed on a boat.

However, what I really want to find is a picture of is the chapel that was inside the mountain.  It had a "chandalier" made out of giant slabs of salt that glowed faintly orange. 

I seem to remember something about it being built or dedicated by King Ludwig, but I may be mis-remembering.  

Is this familiar to anyone?
