Chapelle de l'oratoire, 18th-century chapel in Avignon, France.
The chapel features a grand portico adorned with paired Corinthian pilasters and two concentric ellipses enclosed within an exterior rectangular structure.
Construction of the chapel began in 1713, paused in 1719, resumed in 1730 under architect Ferdinand Delamonce, and completed in 1749 at a cost of 95,000 livres.
The building takes its name from the Congregation of the Oratory of Jesus, which established a seminary in Avignon under the title of Saint Gregory the Great.
Located at 32 rue Joseph Vernet in Avignon, the chapel maintains regular opening hours throughout the year for visitors interested in religious heritage.
During the French Revolution, the Oratorians supported the movement, leading to the chapel's transformation into a Patriotic Club and later an ammunition storage facility.
