Morillon (74440)
Animals not allowed

The residents decided to extend the old chapel in 1577 (date above the door where the traces of an escutcheon and crown removed by the revolutionaries in 1793 can be seen). Above the door are double windows and a small steeple which has recently been carefully restored. The nave is flanked by two groin-vaulted aisles, each with two spans. It is arch vaulted and divided by a transverse rib. The chancel was originally square and topped by a cupola. In 1866 it was transformed into a circular chancel with two spans. A capital with angel heads placed in one corner may come from the earlier chancel.
