THE CHAPEL OF THE PENITENTS

This chapel was built in the th century, at a time when the cemetery of the St. Martin Church was transferred to the city hospital. It underwent a change in the th century when the brotherhood of blue Krajina (whose spirituality is inspired by the Franciscan ideal) settled there. A pole of religious arts at the Musée du Pays d'Ussel, it contains beautiful collections of art and religious ethnography. It contains a magnificent golden altarpiece, works by Paul Delimosin (1711), a Pentecôte Frères (1664), a socket in champlevé enamel from the early th century as well as polychrome wooden statues.
