Chapel of the seventeenth century listed in the inventory of historical monuments. It housed the Penitents, a grouping of the former brotherhoods of white, blue and black Penitents who assisted the families during a mourning. During the Revolution, the chapel served as a meeting place for a revolutionary club before returning to the Penitents.
