This chapel houses a magnificent stucco altarpiece and Carrara marble altar dating from 1838.

Built around 1400 on the site of a former convent of Cordeliers monks given by Louis IX (aka Saint Louis) to the inhabitants of Aigues-Mortes in 1248, the chapel houses a magnificent stucco altarpiece and Carrara marble altar dating from 1838. These Cordeliers monks were behind the creation of the Confrérie des Pénitents Gris. After almost a year of restoration work, the chapel is once again open to visitors!

Une belle chapelle avec rotable magnifique. Parfois une personne est présente pour expliquer ce fameux rotable.

chapelle des penitents gris
Cette petite chapelle se visite l'après-midi. Nous avons été attirés par quelques personnes qui entraient. Belle surprise! La chapelle est claire et pas surchargée. Nous avons pu en apprendre un peu sur cette confrérie que nous ne connaissions pas.
