History
This chapel would have been built on the ruins of a pagan temple. The building would have been destroyed during the Hundred Years' War. It comprises a rectangular nave terminated by a semi-circular apse vaulted with a half-dome. Externally, the gable forms a bell wall at the level of the triumphal arch. The west façade possesses a portal from the 19th century.
