The retention dam, located between the municipalities of Saint-Pierre-de-Boeuf – from which it takes its name – and Saint-Maurice-l’Exil, crosses the natural arm of the Rhône (right arm), connecting the town of Saint-Pierre-de-Boeuf to the Île de la Platière on the left bank. The 140 m wide dam has six 20 m passes equipped with 12 m high gates, separated by 4 m thick concrete piers. The dam bridge is a 174 m long reinforced concrete girder bridge (168.80 m opening), with seven 28 m spans. Over a width of 8.80 m, it carries a 6 m long, two-lane, two-way roadway, bordered by two sidewalks lined with parapets made of mixed material (concrete-metal). The upstream sidewalk is separated from the roadway by a low wall. Shelters are located on the downstream side of the piers. The ViaRhône cycle path continues on both sides.

The church was built thanks to donations from Galiot de Genouillac in 1540, as commemorated by an inscription in a cartouche near the south portal. The work progressed slowly, so much so that in his will of 1545 he stipulated that it had to be completed "according to the portrait with which it was begun, both as regards the building and the roof."

In front of the chapel are well-preserved old graves, and the crosses of others are beautifully placed on the walls. It's worth taking a break here to admire the view and the old cemetery. Unfortunately, the chapel isn't always open.

The original Marian shrine "La Salette", which is referred to here, is located in the French Alps (Arrondissement of Grenoble) and is an important Marian shrine, even if it has nowhere near the level of fame of other places of pilgrimage in honor of the Mother of God - such as Lourdes in the French Pyrenees or Fatima in Portugal.

The chapel of La Salette dates from the 11th century. Located in a valley, bordering meadows and orchards, it is the starting point for many hikes. Here, you meet the pilgrims of Santiago de Compostela.
