The sacristy in front of you is an ancient sepulchral chapel, built between 1616 and 1624 at the request of Madame Marie de Vabre. Admire its oak cased ceiling, typical of the Louis XIII era. The sacristy shelters a treasury that contains items from the Middle-Ages and religious objects from the19th and 20th centuries.

Among the most remarkable of these items are painted alabasters, representing the five joys of the Virgin Mary, and two saints worshipped by French monarchy: Saint-Catherine of Alexandria with her sword and broken wheel and Sainte Marguerite defeating a dragon.

In front of the showcase stands a statue of a holy woman. Until the present-day renovation, it stood outside, high up on the church. It is unfortunately impossible to identify her because the object she holds in her left hand is much too worn-out. She might be Marie-Madeleine or Sainte Barbe.

Several paintings decorate the chapel – one of the Magi offering their presents to Jesus and paintings showing men of the church praying. You will also see fragments of non-religious stained-glass windows which have no place in the church anymore and are exhibited here. A non-confessional stained-glass pane is offered by the master glassmaker to the person who financed the making of one of the stained-glass windows. He is at liberty to insert it in one of his windows at home. The fragments you can see probably come from the Town Bailiff’s house.
