Little chapel in the grassland

Little chapel in the grassland
In a vast grassland, further along the river Sarthe there is this small 15th C. chapel on the site where Saint-Ceneri originally settled. The chapel contains a statue of the Saint to which various miracles have been attributed:
young ladies hoping to get married soon should bring a needle with them to the chapel to stick in the robe of the saint - if it stays in place you will be married within a year. Equally, ladies wanting to get pregnant should lie on the large stone in the chapel floor, which was the stone on which the saint slept, and can expect to fall pregnant shortly.

Thanks Füsun, it was quite outstanding to see from far the little light spots around the chapel.

A quaint and peaceful perspective of this little chapel. It has a different feeling seeing it lit up at night rather than in the full light of day. It "comes to life" in its own unique way. Quite lovely.

Thanks Eric. I was delighted with this view as well, I've never been there during the night and saw the illumination also the first time.

Thanks Armando. There was a ground lighting to illuminate the chapel in two rows, and I took one of them for my photo foreground...
