Chapelle de la Visitation Sainte-Claire, Religious monument in Vieux-Nice, France.
The chapel presents an L-shaped design with two naves, including specific sections for public attendance and cloistered nuns separated by grilles.
Cistercian nuns established the chapel in the early 16th century, followed by Clarisses and later Visitandines who expanded the complex near the Augustinian convent.
Giuseppe Toselli painted the interior decorations in 1828, adding artistic elements that remain central to the chapel's architectural character.
The building currently operates as Centre culturel de la Providence, managed by La Semeuse association since 2002.
The chapel structure incorporates separate worship spaces divided by grilles, reflecting the historical separation between public gatherings and cloistered religious activities.
