The Chapel of Saint-Blaise des Simples is the only testimony to a leper colony dating from the 12th century. Saint Blaise had the reputation of being a healer and of caring for men and animals through prayer, but above all through medicinal plants, called "simple". Away from the village, this leper house housed lepers until the 16th century.
At the dawn of the 18th century, the uninhabited and ruined buildings were demolished. Only the chapel remained, which was sold during the Revolution, and remained empty and forgotten.
At the end of the 1950s, some personalities of the city had the idea of rehabilitating the chapel and entrusting the artistic restoration of the walls to Jean Cocteau. The poet chooses the Simples as a decorative theme.
It is in this Chapel that Jean Cocteau rests for eternity with these words signed on the large slab of his tomb: "I remain with you".
It can be visited from March 1 to October 30 for an entrance fee of €3.
