CHAPELLE IMPERIALE DE SAINT SAUVEUR
LUZ-SAINT-SAUVEUR , Hautes-Pyrénées – Cultural heritage
About
During the Romantic period 1820-1830, many people taking the waters, men and women from Paris and the big cities, came to the baths at Saint-Sauveur, including the Duchesses of Angoulême (1823) and Berry (1828)
English gardens were created along the Gave and a building called the Rotunda was erected. It served first as a ballroom and then as a chapel
As the chapel became too cramped and a little old-fashioned, Emperor Napoleon III commissioned his architect Boeswildwald, a Protestant, to build a new chapel near the site of the Rotunda. This is the one we see today
It is of the same inspiration as the churches of Adé, Cauterets and Poueyferré. Traduction automatique par DeepL via DATAtourisme
