Notre Dame des Grâces Chapel

This chapel is the first place of worship in Plampinet. Since mass was not said often enough, the archbishopric of Embrun then encouraged the construction of the church of Saint-Sébastien de Plampinet. The wall paintings are representative of the decorations of the religious buildings of the 15th and 16th centuries in the region, less expensive than stained glass or sculptures and more imposing. The oldest panels date from 1450. The Bible then in Latin, these frescoes similar to a comic strip, allowed to spread the biblical message to everyone. Very present thanks to the cultural exchanges with Lombard Italy, they are often made "a fresco": directly on a fresh plaster, hence the name "frescoes".
