Chapel of the XIIIth century, nicknamed chapel of apple trees with the fresco presenting apple trees of the Japanese Kyoji Tabuko who renovated it.

It owes its nickname of "chapel of the apple trees" to the fresco by Japanese artist Kyoji Tabuko, representing, it is given to you in a thousand, apple trees! This encounter with Japan saved the chapel from ruin. Built in the 13th century, rebuilt in the 15th, it was abandoned and closed to the public in 1983. In 1987, our Japanese artist, seduced by the beauty of the place, decided to renovate it, giving free rein to his inspiration. The result is astonishing and does not leave one indifferent.

Il faut la chercher un peu dans la campagne. Restauré par l'artiste japonais Kyoji Takubo. Un bel endroit pour une pause.

Chapelle qui mérite le détour. Elle est perdue dans la campagne. Elle a été refaite par un artiste japonais de renom.
