Église du Sappey-en-Chartreuse

Église du Sappey-en-Chartreuse, Church in Le Sappey-en-Chartreuse, France

The église Saint-Michel du Sappey-en-Chartreuse is a mountain church in the village of Le Sappey-en-Chartreuse, in the Chartreuse range in France. It has a covered entrance porch in the Dauphiné style, a plain bell tower, and two small side chapels inside.

The church was built around 1115 and is one of the oldest buildings in the village. It was substantially altered in the 17th and 19th centuries, with monks from the nearby Grande Chartreuse monastery contributing to the later work.

The eight stained glass windows were made by master glassmaker Christophe Berthier from designs by the artist Arcabas. The church also keeps a bronze porch bell in Dauphiné style dated 1665, classed as a monument historique, tuned to C sharp and bearing inscriptions.

The church stands in the snowy square at the centre of Le Sappey-en-Chartreuse, its tower clock and S-shaped iron anchors visible from the square. The square is reached by road from Grenoble through the Chartreuse range; parking is available nearby. The building is generally open every day except public holidays.

Inside the church stands a polychrome enamel crucifix over 2 meters (6.5 ft) tall, made in 1955 by Georges Gimel. Alongside it is a modernist Stations of the Cross in painted cement, depicting the Passion of Christ in a contemporary style.
