Chapelle Notre-Dame du Château d'Ultrère, Medieval chapel in Sorède, France

The Notre-Dame du Château d'Ultrère chapel stands at 455 meters elevation, featuring a baroque wooden altarpiece and a 14th-century Virgin statue.

Built in 1681 following the destruction of Ultrera Castle in 1675, the chapel incorporates architectural elements from the original fortress sanctuary.

The chapel maintains its religious significance through regular masses, particularly during Easter Monday and December 28th for the Feast of the Holy Innocents.

Visitors can reach the chapel through a marked trail with yellow signs, requiring a three-hour hike with an elevation gain of 460 meters.

The chapel survived a devastating fire in 2001, leading to complete restoration of its interior, including the classified historical monument altarpiece.
