Chapelle Notre-Dame de Beaurevers (Box J 1364) : inscription by order of 21 August 1987
Origin and history
The Notre-Dame de Beaurevers Chapel is a religious building located in the commune of Saint-François-Longchamp, Savoie (department 73). Built in the 17th century, it embodies the sacred architecture of this period in the French Alps. Its registration as a Historic Monument by decree of 21 August 1987 bears witness to its heritage value, although its precise location remains approximate (level 5/10 according to available data).
The chapel belongs to the commune of Montaimont, whose code Insee (73235) links it administratively to the region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Available sources, such as the Merimée and Monumentum base, indicate that it is protected for its historical characteristics, but do not specify its current use (visit, rental, worship) or the details of its construction. GPS coordinates suggest a location close to the site called Bad Lands, without further confirmation.
The building is part of a rural and mountain context, where chapels often played a central role in community life, between spirituality and gathering. Their preservation reflects the local attachment to both religious and identity heritage, marked by the geographical isolation of the Alpine valleys. No information is available on any sponsors, artisans or specific historical events related to this monument.
