Free visit of the chapel of the Layné hospital provided by the chaplain of the CHI.
The hospital chapel was built from 1937 to 1939. It is made of reinforced concrete, on the plans of the architect Franck Bonnefousn at the same time as the old buildings of the Layné hospital, to which it is attached.
The nave and the rotunda serving as an apse are illuminated by small high windows in the form of mitres. The stained glass windows are made in 1948 by the master glassmaker Jean Lesquibe.
