Visit of the chapel and the cloister
Accompanied by the volunteer members of the APAPA association, discover the history of the chapel and cloister of the community of nuns.
Built in 1846, the chapel is a neoclassical building. It preserves liturgical furniture in high quality wood, finely worked, evoking a true work of goldsmithery.
The adjoining cloister, built in brick between 1850 and 1862, seduces with its semicircular arcades and preserved charm. At each end, a base surmounted by decorative vases punctuates the whole, while the French garden offers a true haven of peace.
The chapel and the cloister have retained their lustre and magnificence. They are exceptionally open on the occasion of the European Heritage Days.

About the location

Fondation Bon Sauveur Alby

Entering from the street LAVAZIERE by the monumental door topped with a tympanum representing JESUS blessing children or by the boulevard of the LUDE, one is immediately seized by the size of the buildings and their beauty, Here no austerity but the view is clear by opening on beds creating a harmonious whole. Walking along the alleys we see, from the administrative entrance of the establishment, the entrance of the current Retirement House (not visitable) extended by its magnificent cloister (visible from the chapel) This building is crowned with a stone baluster that ends at each end by a pedestal surmounted by a very artistic stone vase. Then you pass by different buildings on the left and right , the rotunda, the emblematic old buildings to arrive at the château du Lude and below its museum of asilaire art (related to de l' Art Brut) and in front is the large chapel and the cloister (open to the public during heritage days) .
