Chapelle Saint-Roch

Discovery and recreation

The chapel is a Gothic building from the 16th century, dedicated to Saint Roch, invoked against the plague. The date of 1397 engraved in the structure likely refers to the earlier chapel, possibly built after the plague epidemic that devastated the region in 1361. It was probably rebuilt after the epidemics of 1604, 1626, and 1636. The chapel was then restored in 1883. A human-headed pedestal dating from the 16th century has been reused in the construction, on the south face. Inside, traces of 16th-century wall paintings are still visible. A Renaissance altarpiece (c. 1636), a stone holy water font (late 16th century), and tombstones are preserved in the chapel.
