The Sainte-Madeleine chapel, located in the heart of the old cemetery of Saint-Junien, is mentioned since the 13th century. In the seventeenth century, the blue penitents settled there, enlarged it and endowed it with a splendid baroque altarpiece. The visit allows to discover its sober architecture and witnesses of the presence of blue penitents.
