Chapelle Notre-Dame du Nid

Built in the 1930s by the sculptor Raymond Dubois, this chapel contains a dozen of his works in stone or boxwood.

The Chapelle Notre Dame du Nid was built in the 1930s opposite Solesmes Abbey by the sculptor Raymond Dubois (1904 - 1982). The main feature of the chapel is the statue of "Notre Dame du Foyer", "Providentially" named Notre Dame du Nid, carved into a niche outside the chapel from almost two-thousand-year-old boxwood. The main altar depicts "The Last Supper" with Jesus and the twelve apostles, including Judah, who looks like Hitler. A dozen other sculptures are carved into the walls.
