Chapel of the Annunciation, Brotherhood of the Black Penitents (founded in 1673)

Located in the center of the village of La Roche, this chapel—with its square bell tower topped by a wrought-iron dome—dates from the 17th century. It features a unique interior layout. Upon entering, walnut pews line the two corners on either side of the door, along with a holy water font carved from local stone. The chapel is rectangular with two side chapels housing the altars of Saint Philip Neri and Saint Joseph. At the high altar stands the main painting of the Annunciation; behind it is a canvas depicting Saint Bernard between Saint Donatus and Saint Bartholomew (1655), holding the chained demon. The building was restored in 1999.
