Origin and history

The chapel of Moifond is a religious monument located in the commune of Pusignan, in the Rhône department (region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes). Its origins date back to the 12th and 15th centuries, as evidenced by the periods of construction mentioned in the official sources. It is distinguished by its location within the local cemetery, highlighting its historical role in the funeral and spiritual practices of the community.

The chapel was recognized for its heritage value by an inscription as historic monuments on 8 March 1982. This act of protection specifically concerns the building itself, identified under the cadastral reference AD 123. Owned by Pusignan, it illustrates the medieval and post-medieval Christian architecture of the Lyon region, although the details of its past use or possible transformations remain little documented.

Available sources, including Wikipedia and the Merimée database (Monumentum), specify its approximate address at 1 Rue du Repos, as well as its Insee communal code (69285). However, no information is provided on its current accessibility, its possible contemporary functions (visits, cults), or historical actors related to its construction or preservation. The accuracy of its geographic location is assessed as poor (level 5/10) in heritage databases.
