Notre Dame de La Salette Chapel

This religious construction was built from 1889 to 1891.

The chapel, raised on a hummock to put it out of reach from the Loire flooding, is part of high-quality constructions built around a tree-filled esplanade.

The architect gave a Romanesque Revival style to the chapel by adding, above the buttresses, columns with remarkably ornamented capitals.

With all its stone statues on the pediment and cast-iron statues on the ground, representing Notre-Dame's apparitions to La Salette's children, the chapel also has, in periphery, a “15 mystères du rosaire” path.

With its stained-glass windows and paintings on canvas, the chapel is a real testimony of life during this period in the Loire valley. You fell in love with this place? Help the Comité de Sauvegarde la Salette for its conservation.
