This is a Merovingian romanesque chapel with origins as far back as the 6th century and present structure dating to the 12th century. It was restored in 1956 with the support of the Maredsous monastery in Belgium, well known there for their excellent beers and cheese, which are eaten together there. Beer and cheese? Very un-French and would never be done in the Var, but their funding of the restoration is undoubtedly appreciated. Photos and inform
