Sainte-Noyale Chapel, Gothic chapel in Noyal-Pontivy, France

The chapel features a massive tower with a slate spire, twelve golden pinnacles, and painted woodwork depicting religious scenes throughout its interior space.

Built in 1423 on the site of a former parish church, the chapel received official historical monument status in 1925 and includes restored structures from 1871.

The chapel contains multiple religious elements including an oratory dedicated to Saint John the Baptist and wood carvings narrating Saint Noyale's life story.

Visitors can explore the chapel grounds, which include three restored fountains, a Gothic water source, and a recently renovated laundry area from 2007.

According to local accounts, three springs emerged at the location where Saint Noyale wept after her execution by a regional leader during her religious mission.
