History

In the 12th century, the Hospitallers owned Lacapelle. The order’s chapel stood approximately on the site where the Sainte-Cécile church stands today. Around 1120, the church of La Capelle is mentioned in a record of possessions. In 1195, the then-uninhabited and almost-ruined village of La Capelle, along with a nearby fortification, was granted as a fief by Arnaut de Boussagues, the prior of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem.

The large wrought-iron Passion cross bears the year 1890 above the chalice.
