The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La chapelle du château de Cruzille est le vestige d'une composition d'ensemble aujourd'hui détruite (château incendié en 1910). C'est une chapelle castrale très simple abritant un décor baroque intérieur en stuc d'une exceptionnelle qualité, que l'on peut dater des années 1650. Ce décor raffiné, particulièrement rare en Bourgogne, est représentatif de l'influence des ornemanistes du 17e siècle.

The chapel of the château of Cruzille is the remains of an ensemble composition today destroyed (château burned in 1910). It is a very simple castle chapel sheltering an exceptional quality interior Baroque decoration in stucco, which can be dated to the 1650s. This refined decoration, particularly rare in Burgundy, is representative of the influence of 17th-century ornamentalists.
