Chapelle de l'hôpital Layné de Mont-de-Marsan

The Layné Hospital Chapel is a religious building in the Saint-Médard district with a bell tower positioned at its corner. The interior is supported by five concrete trusses and displays fourteen sculptured Stations of the Cross along its walls.

The building was constructed between 1937 and 1939 following designs by architect Franck Bonnefous. It was built as part of the hospital's expansion during a period when medical facilities were upgraded with modern structures.

The stained glass windows display religious scenes like the Annunciation and the Nativity, created in 1939 by glazier Jean Lesquibe. They fill the interior with colored light that changes throughout the day.

The chapel is located within the hospital complex and welcomes visitors on Sundays for worship services. Access is easiest through the main hospital entrance, from which visitor paths lead to the building.

The fourteen Stations of the Cross were created by artist Lucien Danglade and showcase skilled sculptural work within the chapel. They form a striking contrast with the building's modern concrete structural elements.
