Chapelle Sainte-Barbe de Mincé, Ruined chapel in Baugé-en-Anjou, France.
The limestone and slate chapel stands at 7.50 meters high with a bell tower designed by master mason Boisard and slate master roofer Verdier.
The chapel replaced a 15th-century structure and served as a processional chapel during the 18th century under François-Louis Frain du Planty de la Vrillière's patronage.
Local inhabitants organized processions until the 17th century to pray for protection against storms and lightning under Saint Barbara's guardianship.
The chapel moved from Échemiré's jurisdiction to Baugé-en-Anjou's administrative boundaries on January 1st, 2016, following territorial reorganization.
The bronze bell, cast in 1738 by Angers master founder Pierre Trony, disappeared during the French Revolution and resurfaced in Trémentines in January 1794.
