Located at the very place where the first residence in Noves was built, it was originally a simple hermitage for Observantine monks. The chapel nave, adjacent to the hermitage, was built in 1630 and extended in 1722 in accordance with the wishes of the inhabitants of Noves during the great Plague of 1720-1721. A pilgrimage linked to this wish still takes place today (first Saturday in September). The apse was built in 1832, followed by the narthex in the 19th century. The inside of the chapel can only be visited on Heritage Days.
In front of the building is large calvary cross standing on a cippus and decorated with a Christ; this is the last station on the Way of the Cross. All that remains of the Way of the Cross towards Notre-Dame-de-Pitié are the stone bases.
During the summer, concerts and shows are organized at the foot of the hill and the chapel serves as a natural and grandiose setting.
