ST. ROCH'S CHAPEL
Go there and contact
Chapel built in the XIIIth century, whose interior keeps the statues of Saint Bonnet in Montbonnet.
On the way to Saugues, the Saint Roch chapel - restored in the 20th century - was built in the 13th century as a stopover chapel on the Velay roads. Inside, the statues of Saint Bonnet, Saint Bonnette and, of course, Saint Roch, who is said to have passed through here on his way back from a pilgrimage to Rome, are preserved. Saint Roch, originally from Montpellier, is said to have contracted the plague during his pilgrimage to the holy city. He took refuge in a cave and was healed by an angel while a dog brought him a piece of bread every day to feed him.
