Chapelle Saint-Charles, Religious monument in Avignon, France.
The Saint-Charles Chapel features a rectangular layout with four bays in the nave and a choir bay, adorned with marble decorations throughout the interior.
Built between 1749 and 1757 by architect François II Franque, the chapel served as part of a seminary complex dedicated to training clergy members.
The Department of Vaucluse transformed this religious building into an exhibition space, now hosting contemporary art shows by prominent artists since 2008.
Located at 4 rue Saint-Charles in Avignon, the chapel opens daily from 1 PM to 6 PM and offers guided visits through its architectural elements.
The chapel contains a large baldachin created by the Mazetti brothers, demonstrating exceptional marble craftsmanship from the 18th century.
