Chapelle de Pen-Bron, Romanesque Revival chapel in La Turballe, France
The chapel stands at the tip of Pen-Bron peninsula with a granite bell tower and limestone window frames featuring decorative tympans throughout the structure.
Construction of the chapel began in 1891 under architect Georges Lafont, replacing an old sardine warehouse that previously served as a place of worship.
The interior walls display wooden panels from Le Pouliguen workshops and contain stained glass windows depicting biblical scenes alongside local life representations.
The chapel forms part of the former Pen-Bron sanatorium complex, which operated as a medical facility for respiratory and locomotor conditions until 2011.
The 1905 stained glass windows integrate local elements such as the Cremeur mill and Aiguillon hotel into religious narratives.
