MEMORIAL CHAPEL OF AVIATION
Romanesque chapel, known as the chapel of the aviators, with a single nave and an apse in the shape of a cul-de-four, dedicated to the bishop of Bayonne
Lescar is linked to flight and this, since 1909, when the Wright brothers settled in the area to create an aviation school. On the edge of the military camp, near the Guyenemer camp where aviators were welcomed during the First World War, this astonishing and moving chapel pays tribute to the pioneers of aeronautics. Unique in the aviation archives, its collection allows us not to forget the missing from 1912 to today. Better known as the chapel of the aviators, Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc was built in their memory in Lescar in 1927.
