    This chapel is dedicated to Saint-Claude, the 7th century bishop of Besançon. From the chapel, there is a view of the mouth of the Aulne and a glimpse of the Menez-Hom mountains.
    The 16th century building with a Latin cross plan consists of a short nave, a large transept and a chevet "Beaumanoir" of 1574.
    The bell tower with ornamental openings is crowned by a dome topped by a lantern.
    Some parts of the ancient sculptures recall a previous cult practiced on this site.
    In 1968, the azure ceiling was replaced by lacquered paneling and the interior plaster was removed to reveal the stones.
    The chapel is currently open every Sunday afternoon.
