Chapels classified from France

By definition, a chapel is a secondary place of worship. If it is included in a larger church, it is then destined for the worship of a saint, a family, a brotherhood. It may belong to a castle or hospital. > It can also be a memorial if it marks a particular place (a miraculous source, a miracle location, the tomb of an isolated saint). It can be built in a cemetery. Finally, contain relics such as the Holy Chapel.
