The Chapelle Sainte-Anne-de-Goiron, erected in the 11th century, is on a very ilsotade place, high in the mountains, overlooking the valley of the Durance. Nearby is only to the former hermitage in a troglodyte grotto. The chapel was a place of local pilgrimage for a long time and there are still some ex-votos. The chapel got enlarged during the 13th and renovated end of the 19th century. There are many carved graffiti on the outer walls of the chapel. Near the entrance "Marie de Coaces" (??) engraved her name long time ago... Or maybe "S(aint) Marie de Co(??)aece"?

Having passed La Roque-d'Anthéron. The road into the mountain ridge was very steep. On the highest place of the ridge is a fire tower, from where the guards have a fantastic overview. I climbed up the stairs and had a talk, as I could not find a hermitage that I was looking for. Of course these guys knew every inch of the mountains.
