La Chapelle, Risolet, 04140 Montclar
It is dedicated to Saint Gregory of Nazianzus
It already existed in 1630 when, during the plague, the priest of Montclar, Jean Chabot, baptised his niece on the 2nd of July. A writing on the frontage, to the right of the entrance, indicates the date of 1738 and the name of André Hermitte: it is likely a restoration. A school teacher of the neighbourhood is known by that name, mentioned in 1726 and 1733 paid by the community in 1734 “for making a cross”. The chapel was still being useed in 1783 by the eleven families of the village.
