This Gothic style chapel is located in the old cemetery of Sainte-Croix. It dates from the 16th century. It is closed by the porch of the old Saint-Donat church, of which it was the south side chapel. It contains the tombstone of Camille de Crues, on which is inscribed the genealogy of the Crues family from 1260 to 1727, and which was classified on the inventory of historical monuments on October 5, 1920. In a state of worrying decay at the end of the 20th century, it was taken out of the air and out of the water by the municipality in 1990, partly thanks to donations from the inhabitants. However, the interior furniture remains heavily degraded and may never be restored, due to costs inaccessible to the municipal budget.

À propos du lieu

It is dedicated to the Holy Cross in the 13th century and then to Saint Donatus in the 18th century. A former church of Sainte-Croix, it may contain the lords of the city in its crypt. The building has a large Romanesque-style porch. Inside the chapel, a funerary slab mentions Camille de Crues, with the family crest. This element was classified in the Inventory of Historic Monuments on October 5, 1920\. You can have fun deciphering the genealogy of the Crues family ... To note: the porch with double painted arcade, the Gothic bay, the liturgical swimming pool of Renaissance style, the seigneurial liter with the arms of the lords and of course the funerary slab...
