Chapelle Saint-Sixte d'Eygalières, Romanesque chapel on rocky knoll in Eygalières, France
The Saint-Sixte Chapel features a massive porch, sturdy buttresses, and a bell wall with a single opening for the bell installation.
The chapel was constructed in the twelfth century near an ancient sanctuary and spring, with additions of a porch and hermitage in 1629.
The local community carries out a traditional pilgrimage from the parish church to the chapel every Easter Tuesday morning.
Visitors can attend mass at the chapel every Thursday at 9 AM from Easter until All Saints' Day, and Sunday afternoons during summer.
The chapel sits among cypress trees on a rocky plateau within the Parc naturel régional des Alpilles, two kilometers from Eygalières.
