The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Edifice à nef unique, voûtée d'arêtes, composé de trois travées et à chevet plat. Le voûtement date de la fin du 13e siècle et le choeur a été agrandi à la même époque. Courant 18e siècle, l'orientation de l'édifice a été modifiée. La façade est transformée et surélevée, prenant son aspect actuel, en 1912. Au sud de la chapelle se trouve l'ancien couvent et, au nord-ouest, l'oratoire. Les vestiges d'une église carolingienne du 9e siècle ont été retrouvés (voir la notice en ligne du service de l'Inventaire du patrimoine de Corse, IA2A002015).

Building with a single nave, vaulted with groin vaults, composed of three bays and a flat chevet. The vaulting dates from the end of the 13th century and the choir was enlarged at the same period. During the 18th century, the orientation of the building was modified. The façade was transformed and raised, taking its current appearance, in 1912. To the south of the chapel stands the former convent and, to the north-west, the oratory. Remains of a Carolingian church from the 9th century were discovered (see the online notice from the Inventory of Corsican heritage service, IA2A002015).
