Origin and history
The Notre-Dame-de-Grâce Chapel is a monument located in the hamlet of the Collet-d'En-Bas, on the town of Albiez-Montrond, in Savoie. Built mainly in the seventeenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries, it embodies a religious heritage typical of alpine rural areas. Its architecture and location reflect the importance of local places of worship in mountain community life, often linked to agricultural and pastoral traditions.
Ranked Historic Monument by decree of 6 July 1988, this chapel today belongs to the municipality of Albiez-Montrond. Construction periods span several centuries, suggesting successive renovations or expansions to meet the spiritual and social needs of the population. Its inscription in the title of Historical Monuments highlights its heritage value, both architecturally and historically, in the context of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum base, indicate that the chapel is located precisely at 5027 Le Collet d'En Bas. Although details of its current use (visits, rentals, etc.) are not explicitly mentioned, its status as communal property suggests local management and potential role in the cultural or tourist life of the village. The accuracy of its location is assessed as fair, which may reflect the challenges of mapping in mountain areas.
