Chapelle Sainte-Catherine du Désert

Raymond de Laubec, abbot of La Sauve-Majeure, wanting to withdraw from the world, had founded this hermitage. The Romanesque portal, from the end of the 12th century, has kept its archivolt and a capital. The chapel housed a 15th century statue of Saint Catherine, in painted and gilded wood. At the sale of national assets, on December 21, 1793, the chapel was sold for 800 pounds to Mr. Couronneau. Since that date, it has belonged to the private domain.
