Description
Probably erected in the 12th century, this small chapel served as a headquarters for a provost linked to one of the main offices of Saint-Michel de Cuxa. Its first written mention dates from 1267. The building consists of a single nave and a semi-circular bedside. Although the nave was undoubtedly originally covered with a frame, it is today in ruins and the northern gutterot wall has disappeared. The western facade still retains a central door in a semicircular arc, with a small window above. The southern facade, built in rubble like that of the West, also has a holding arc door. The choir, slightly narrower than the nave, is covered by a vault in oven ass and lit by an axial window of Romanesque style. It is built in the medium sandstone apparatus.
