The octagonal structure features walls decorated with frescoes depicting the Passion of Christ and incorporates artistic elements throughout its architectural design.
Construction of the chapel began in 1961 under the vision of Jean Cocteau and banker Louis Martinon, reaching completion in 1965 after Cocteau's death.
