Chapelle de l'Adoration

Chapelle de l'Adoration, Religious chapel in central Grenoble, France.

The Chapelle de l'Adoration, at no. 17 rue Voltaire, presents a street facade of pale irregular stone below reddish-brown render, with a round-arched double door under a stone aedicule and white cross. Behind the entrance rooms lies the chapel hall: pale yellow pilasters and salmon-pink panels, a grey-blue ribbed ceiling, and an end-wall stone aedicule with a segmental pediment, two statue niches and an altar.

The building was constructed in the second half of the 17th century as a place for the Penitents of Mercy. In 1739, the White Penitents took over the chapel and shaped its subsequent use.

The chapel is named for the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, a devotion run here by the Oeuvre de l'Adoration réparatrice after earlier occupants including the Fathers of La Salette and the Brothers of the Christian Schools. It was deconsecrated in 2020, and in 2024 the city of Grenoble entrusted its management and restoration to the GrenobLe Lab collective.

The entrance is at no. 17 rue Voltaire, in the semi-pedestrian Notre-Dame district; the chapel itself stands behind the street-front building, reached through the door bearing the Penitents' cross. Trams A and B stop at Hubert Dubedout - Maison du Tourisme, at the end of the street. The building is normally closed and was long in a state of abandonment; interior visits have only been exceptional, notably during the 2021 and 2022 heritage days.

The two large wooden choir stalls flanking the main altar came from the former Cistercian convent of Crolles in the Grésivaudan valley, of which only the abbatial lodging survives. A tall wooden pulpit stands to the right of the altar, and a gallery above holds statues of the Virgin Mary, Mélanie Calvat and Maximin Giraud, the two witnesses of the La Salette apparition.
