Chapelle Saint-Quenin de Vaison-la-Romaine, Medieval chapel in Vaison-la-Romaine, France.

The Chapelle Saint-Quenin displays the characteristics of Provençal Romanesque architecture through its stone construction and rounded arches.

The chapel stands on a former Roman necropolis and was constructed during the second half of the 12th century as a place of worship.

The chapel incorporates local architectural traditions with religious elements, featuring carved acanthus-leaf capitals and decorative stone columns.

Visitors need to contact the local Heritage Department in advance to arrange access to the chapel, as opening hours are limited.

The chapel's triangular apse sets it apart from traditional church architecture, making it an exceptional example of medieval design.
