In the chapel, attention is drawn by a baroque altar. It is remarkably large and made entirely of marble. Several parts of the altar were stolen during a theft. Large letters can be read on the back of some damaged white decorative elements.
This is probably recovered material from marble gravestones. The original wooden statue of Mary - for which the l’Escaille family made a new garment - is safely kept in the castle.

It's nice when a chapel is maintained and you also get a story. Formerly built and restored by the lords of the castle.
