The relics of Saint Claude la Colombière, spiritual director of Saint Marguerite-Marie, are venerated in the Chapelle de La Colombière. It houses the relics of Blessed Claude La Colombière (canonized by Pope John Paul II on May 31, 1992), who was St. Margaret-Marie's confidante and supporter in her mission. The Byzantine-inspired chapel, simple from the outside, is enriched inside by mosaics, stained glass windows, carved and painted capitals and sculptures that provide a lavish decoration. In 2012 the chapel was included in the register of historical monuments.
