After a mission preached from the pulpit by Father Michel in 1854, the inhabitants decided to build a church dedicated to the Blessed Virgin. The material intended for the construction was fetched by the sailors using only their arms and hands. On August 6, 1856, the church was consecrated.
After its destruction in 1942, a new chapel was built and consecrated on August 22, 1950.

Despite the beautiful landscape, one should focus on World War II here.

Idyllic chapel on top of the rock - above Etretat - from here you can watch great sunsets in the evening!
