History of the chapel:

The chapel is located near the ruins of the old church, which was listed as a monument in 1996. The ruins and the chapel are connected by the current Orne forest road, which follows the route of the "rue d'en haut" of the old village. The chapel is located on the edge of this road. The Fountain of Remembrance, which was built a few years later, is located in line with the chapel, on the other side of the road. The chapel consists of a large nave, preceded by an entrance portal, followed by a trapezoidal choir which opens at the back of the altar onto a small sacristy with a rectangular plan. Of the nine hidden chapels, the Ornes chapel is the only one with a sacristy.
