The Oblates' Chapel also has an elliptical cupola over the nave which is in the shape of a Latin cross, without side aisles, accentuating the impression of height. Bathed in natural light from a lantern skylight and four oeil-de-boeuf windows, it rests on composite pilasters with original decoration.
Two bas-reliefs by Thomas Veyrier which originally adorned the high altar are now kept in the Tapestry Museum.
