Séranon - Notre-Dame-de-Gratemoine

Séranon - Notre-Dame-de-Gratemoine
Notre-Dame-de-Gratemoine is the remnant of a priory that belonged to the Lérins Abbey, an important abbey that was located on the island Saint-Honorat, off Cannes. The priory was mentioned in 1060. The church of the priory, erected in the 11th century probably had three bays, of which two may have been demolished during the Wars of Religion. The Lérins abbey sold the priory in 1646 to the Lord of Séranon and for a while was used by the parish.

I found this still life next to the (locked) chapel. Seems this is still a place of pilgrimage.
