The Saint-Joseph de l'Espérance et du Bon Secours chapel stands on a hill on the outskirts of the spa town of Néris. Built in 1874, it has long been a place of pilgrimage.

The type of framing used, combined with the weakness of the timbers, was certainly the main cause of the spire's rapid twisting.
