Origin and history

The church of Saint-Blaise de Chassagne is a religious building located in the commune of Beauvallon, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Although its period of construction is not specified, it is recognized as a Historical Monument, especially for its seigneurial chapel housing a swimming pool protected by ministerial decree.

The swimming pool located in the church's seigneurial chapel was listed as Historic Monuments by an order of 2 February 1982. This architectural detail is a remarkable part of the local heritage, and the building now belongs to the municipality. The exact location of the church is indicated as the 21 Ruelle Saint-Blaise in Chassagne, although the administrative address is associated with Beauvallon.

Available data, from sources such as Monumentum, point to a geographical accuracy considered fair (note of 5/10), which may indicate minor uncertainties about its exact location. No additional information is provided on its openness to the public, current uses or detailed history.
