Interesting architecture! Through an old wooden door in the main portal, you enter an antechamber with a cross vault, although not old. The main room is a clear child of the 1980s (built in 1984), flooded with light through the large, round clear glass windows, somewhat white and sterile in stark contrast to the baroque-looking altar.

There wasn't much to see in winter, hardly any water, but the landscape was still very beautiful 👍

We don't take advantage of the opportunity to cool off in winter, but we can imagine what it's like here in summer. A beautiful area.

Like an opal, the clear water of the Ache shimmers here in all possible shades of color. A truly sensual natural spectacle.
