About the location

Chapelle Saint-Antoine
Place de la Chapelle, 37360 Saint-Antoine-du-Rocher
  • Indre-et-Loire
  • Centre-Val de Loire
A hermit named Antoine came to settle on the commune around the seventh century in a cave in the middle of the woods. It became an oratory for a time, and a chapel was built there. A spring is nearby. The chapel and the spring were restored in 1842 and again in 1969\. Two sarcophagi dating from the VI century discovered in 1978 are deposited in the chapel.
