Small chapel built in 1530 on the ruins of an earlier pagan chapel or place of worship.
Built in 1530, this chapel was probably built on the ruins of an earlier chapel or even a pagan edifice. A cloth merchant from Nivelle in northern France had vowed to finance a chapel to thank Saint Gertrude. Comprising two colonnaded porticoes and an altar for the dead, it contains a statue of the saint, recognizable by her attributes: mice that run up the length of her cloak. During the Ancien-Régime, pilgrims would stop along the way to pray or ask for the saint's favors.
