Origin and history
Saint-Pierre Chapel, located in Nolay in the Côte-d'Or department (21), is a 16th-century religious building. It is classified as a Historical Monument, with an official inscription by order of 27 May 1991, including also the cross facing it. This monument is now owned by the commune of Nolay, and its precise address is 4 Rue de la Chapelle, 21340 Nolay.
In the 16th century, Burgundy was a region marked by an intense religious life, where local chapels played a central role in community life. These buildings served not only as places of worship, but also as gathering points for the inhabitants, reflecting the importance of faith and traditions in the society of the time. The Saint-Pierre chapel fits in this context, although the specific details of its construction or its sponsors are not specified in the available sources.
