Chapel of Saint-Jean-le-Fromental, chapel located in Isère, in France

The Chapel of Saint-Jean-le-Fromental is a small isolated Romanesque chapel on the edge of the Chambaran plateau, in the cemetery of the hamlet of Saint-Jean-le-Fromental, Saint Antoine l'Abbaye. Its dark grey masonry facade has a narrow bell gable with one arched opening and a stone cross, above a round-arched doorway with a wooden door. A sundial is set on the outer choir wall, and wall paintings were uncovered inside during a recent restoration.

The chapel is a 12th-century Romanesque building, listed as a monument historique on 18 October 1910. A 1998 article in a Drôme journal states it belonged to the lord Adrenc du Vinais, then to the monks of Montmajour, before passing to the Antonines, who held it until the French Revolution. In 1663 it was at the centre of a dispute between Archbishop Henry de Villars of Vienne and the abbot of the Antonine order.

The chapel is dedicated to John the Baptist and stands in the hamlet's cemetery. In 1663 it was at the centre of a dispute between the Archbishop of Vienne, Henry de Villars, and the abbot of the Antonine order. It appears in Michel Barbier's film Les herbes magiques, alongside the story of Dominique Villars, an illiterate shepherd from the Dauphiné who became a physician and botanist.

The chapel stands in the cemetery of the hamlet Saint-Jean-le-Fromental, on the Chambaran plateau between Dionay and Saint-Antoine-l'Abbaye. The path in front of it is a variant of the GR 65 long-distance trail from Gillonnay toward Saint-Antoine-l'Abbaye. The building belongs to the municipality and opens mainly during the European Heritage Days in September, as in 2022.

The bell in one of the two openings of the bell gable was cast in 1464. The chapel also appears in Michel Barbier's film Les herbes magiques, where Stanislas Monange plays Dominique Villars, an illiterate shepherd from the Dauphiné who became a physician and botanist.
