CHAPEL OF THE WHITE PENITENTS
Go there and contact
A chapel whose interior is decorated with stalls, an altarpiece with five paintings and four statues of saints
The Chapel of the White Penitents or "Chapel of the Rosary" was originally located on rue Clemenceau. It was the Pénitents blancs (a brotherhood of lay men devoted to the poor, sick and dying) who had requested its construction in 1610. After the Revolution, it was sold as a national asset, then transformed into a bourgeois house. At the beginning of the 19th century, the Brotherhood of the Rosary replaced it with a new building in the present rue de la Victoire. Only the door and its lintel remain intact. Of great simplicity, the interior is decorated with stalls, an altarpiece with five paintings and four statues of saints.
