Description
12th century pilgrimage site dedicated to the Virgin, on which a small chapel was built in the 17th century. This chapel was integrated into the whole built according to a regular rectangular plan of the hospital in 1794, by the brothers of the Order of Saint-Jean-de-Dieu. This set includes the chapel, a room for the sick and the infirm on the ground floor, as well as a room for women added on the first floor in 1791, accessible by a staircase with a wrought iron ramp. In extension are the apothecary, the dining room, and the farm, as well as a cloister made up of three galleries and monks cells located in the southern parts in ruins. This set was reused in the 19th century by the sisters of Croix-Saint-André, then was abandoned until the end of the 20th century. There are painted ceilings and vestiges of 18th century gypsum.
