Chapelle des Pénitents Noirs (vestiges) (cad. JJ 577p) : inscription par arrêté du 30 octobre 1961.

This former church served as a chapel for the Augustines until 1562. The Jesuits moved there in 1563, then were replaced by the black penitents in 1571. The building was restored in 1659 and 1660. The chapel was at the site of the current house at No. 3 and was slightly larger. The entrance was made by a central portal overlooking a courtyard. Above this portal, you can still see the vestiges of walled berries: a central oculus and two semicircular side windows.
