You will see this 14th-century Romanesque and Gothic chapel from all points in Moustiers Sainte-Marie since it is perched on a rock 830 meters above the town. It sits on the site of an AD 470 temple.

We climbed a bit higher to get a good look.

To visit, you must climb up the stone stairway, past 14 stations of the cross and a waterfall.

Phew! Made it.

The climb looks harder than it is, though you’ll want to go early to avoid slower tourists who might clog the narrow path.
