Chapelle Sainte-Marie-Madeleine de Penmarc'h, Gothic chapel in Penmarch, France.

The stone chapel features a bell tower with two exterior staircases, a nave without side aisles, and sculptured capitals with geometric patterns.

Built between the 12th and 16th centuries, the chapel initially served as a leper colony and was dedicated to Saint Stephen before its dedication to Mary Magdalene.

The chapel contains a 16th-century Pietà statue and modern stained glass windows created by artist Jean Bazaine in 1981.

The chapel opens Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday from June 11-30, then daily except Mondays from July 1 between 2:30 PM and 6 PM.

A fountain dedicated to Saint Pustoch stands at the chapel entrance, with water believed to cure skin conditions including eczema.
