Visit: The chapel of Frontenex

Built in 1861, thanks to Canon Paul-Bernard Crozet-Mouchet who was buried in the chapel in 1866, the chapel of Frontenex is a small rectangular building with a bedside with cut sides.

It is surmounted by a bell tower topped by an arrow finished by a cross. The interior is vaulted in pointed arches falling on lamp butts. The vault painted in blue is dotted with stars. The whole is a mixture of baroque and neo-gothic.
Although privately owned, the chapel is open to visitors during European Heritage Days and to worship once a week during the month of May. A phylactery on the façade of the chapel bears the inscription: "Ave Gracia Plena". The top of the portal in brace ends with a cross where are engraved a date, 1863 and a crest with the arms of the family of Menthon which is dated 1594.
Visit commented by Odile Falletti, owner of the place.
Parking nearby on the left side of the building.
Duration: 1h.
