Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-la-Salette de Banyuls-sur-Mer, Mountain chapel in Banyuls-sur-Mer, France.
The white-walled Notre-Dame-de-la-Salette chapel stands at 198 meters elevation, featuring a single bell tower and red-tiled roof overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
Local vineyard owner Bonaventure Reig completed the construction of the chapel on December 8, 1865, following his pilgrimage to La Salette-Fallavaux.
The chapel honors the Virgin Mary's appearance to two children in 1846 at La Salette-Fallavaux in Isère, representing local Catholic traditions.
Visitors can reach the chapel by following Route du Balcon de Madeloc along D86 from Banyuls-sur-Mer, continuing through residential areas to the hilltop location.
The chapel's illuminated presence at night creates a recognizable silhouette against the sky, visible from multiple points throughout Banyuls-sur-Mer.
