History
Small building which presumably belonged to a priory now ruined. The chapel is wrecked during the Revolution. In 1812, the chapel is assigned to the inhabitants; worship is abandoned in 1817. In 1925, the moulded and sculpted side door is removed by the mayor. The building consists of a single nave under a slightly broken barrel vault.
