Description
The chapel represents a fascinating example of the continuity of a traditional type of small religious building in this area of the Pyrenees. With a rectangular and erected brick plan, the chapel is surmounted by a ceiling with painted wooden boxes. These boxes have four different patterns: the monogram of the Virgin, an angel head, and various floral patterns. Each pattern appears on a diagonal. A altarpiece occupies the whole back of the chapel.
