Anjony Castle Chapel, Tournemire
The Chapel with its fresco decorations depicting scenes from the Passion had to be undertaken by Louis III of Anjony, lord of the place since 1526, to compensate for the fact that attendance at the parish church had become impossible for them after the assassination of the parish priest by the Tournemire family.
About this building
The Chapel is distinguished not only by its reduced dimensions for a non-longitudinal space, traditionally used for Christian places of worship, but also by the frescoes that dot the entire walls, from the high ceiling to the keystone.
