Epfig - Chapelle Sainte-Marguerite

The "Chapel of St. Margaret" in the little village of Epfig now serves as cemetery chapel. The chapel was built in the beginning of the 11th. century. From this point of view (standing on the street), the layout of a "Latin Cross" is clearly visible. The structure of the chapel is very sober, not even an apse is added to that cross.

Looking up to the vaulting of the nave and the crossing. The rope leads up to the "cemetery-bell" in the crossing tower. Note the frescoes, which date back to the 12th. century,

The "Chapel of St. Margaret" in the little village of Epfig now serves as cemetery chapel. The chapel was built in the beginning of the 11th. century, using the common layout of a "Latin Cross". A hundred years later the porch with the arches was added. To the left side of the chapel (not to seen on the photo. Sorry!) is an ossuary, where hundreds of skulls are to be seen behind chicken-wire.
