Chapelle Notre-Dame de Dromon, Medieval chapel in Saint-Geniez, France.
The chapel features two levels with a crypt containing sculpted capitals decorated with intricate patterns of plant motifs and animal representations.
First documented in 1030, the chapel was given to Saint-Victor Abbey in Marseille by the Bishop of Gap before being buried until 1656.
The crypt holds a fertility stone that attracted numerous women seeking to conceive, indicating connections to pre-Christian traditions in the region.
Located on a mountainside, the chapel requires visitors to follow a marked path from Chabert hamlet through four kilometers of alpine terrain.
The underground crypt contains alabaster capitals and three distinct sections, suggesting its original purpose as a repository for Saint Genies relics.
