CHAPELLE LA MADELEINE
Description
Built in the 13th and 14th centuries with materials recovered from an older chapel that was part of an old clumsy building. This is the only remaining vestige of the buildings that were used as leprosarium during the second leprosy epidemic in Lorraine. (Only the exterior is visible, the chapel only opens once a year during the bun festival.) Ranked in the M.H. (chapel and surroundings)
Located 1.8km from the city centre (follow the suburb of Alsace).
