Chapelle Saint-André du Fossat, Medieval chapel in Le Fossat, France.

The chapel features a nave and an apse supported by two buttresses, with a bell wall containing an open bay and an oculus window.

This 12th-century chapel of the former diocese of Rieux remained partially in ruins until its complete restoration in 2016.

The Association for the Protection of Historical Monuments of Le Fossat regularly conducts activities to preserve and promote this local religious heritage.

The chapel stands isolated more than one kilometer north of the village and approximately 150 meters from the right bank of the Lèze river.

The 2016 renovation work restored the complete tile roof of the building, preserving its original Romanesque architectural characteristics.
