CHAPEL OF THE BLUE PENITENTS
Gothic chapel with century paintings and an impressive trompe l'oeil decoration dedicated to Saint Jerome.
Chapelle des Cordeliers, then Chapelle des Pénitents Bleus, the edifice dazzles us from the moment we enter with its extensive paintings. First, behind the altar, the impressive 19th-century trompe-l'oeil decoration dedicated to Saint Jerome. In the background, the cathedral. On the left, from the same period, a picturesque representation of the Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer boat and Saint Sara. Traces of paint on the nave walls date from the 17th century.
