Chapelle de la Visitation, Religious building in central Limoges, France.
The Visitation Chapel features high ceilings, stone walls, and large windows that illuminate its interior space throughout the day.
Built between 1650 and 1665, the chapel functioned as a revolutionary tribunal, military infirmary, and courthouse through different periods.
The chapel now serves as a cultural venue, hosting theater performances, music concerts, exhibitions, and conferences throughout the year.
Located on Rue François Chénieux in Limoges, the chapel underwent extensive renovation work before reopening to visitors in autumn 2016.
The Department of Haute-Vienne acquired this historical monument in 2007, transforming it from a religious space into a public cultural center.
