The round chapel of machine-made brick has a round tent roof with a wide overhang, covered with slates in Maasdekking. The ridge of the roof is finished with copper plate and is crowned by a spire. The chapel is preceded by a projecting portal under a saddle roof with a wide overhang, covered with slates in Maasdekking. A semi-circular facade niche has been placed within the projecting portal, within which a two-part wooden entrance door with panels has been placed. Above the entrance door, four stones have been placed with the following inscriptions: "27/11", "14/5", "7/6", "26/8", which indicate the date of the memorial day of St. Oda and the appointment of the founder of the chapel, AJ van Erp, as pastor; the solemn raising of St. Oda's bones by Bishop Otbertus; the ordination of AJ van Erp; the consecration of the chapel on the occasion of the golden jubilee of pastor AJ van Erp. Four high round-arched windows have been placed around it, filled with stained glass windows. The eaves are decorated with masonry corbels, which support the roof construction. A wooden door has been placed in the east side of the chapel, under a slightly arched segmental arch. At the rear, a free-hanging canopy with a saddle roof has been placed, resting on projecting masonry. Under the canopy, a life-size sandstone statue has been placed on a high masonry plinth. It depicts a standing St. Oda in a pleated robe, his face turned downwards and his eyes cast down. The right hand raised in front of the chest and the left hanging freely.
