Chapel of Saint-Pierre

AIGUINES

This Romanesque chapel, which may seem modest today, was the parish church of the medieval village.

Mentioned in the archives of Saint-Victor Abbey in 1043, it stood in the vicinity of the feudal castle, as was customary at that time.
It is called Saint-Pierre, which the village of Aiguines has kept as its holy patron. A mass is still said there on the first Sunday in August, for the holy's patron day.

For the quickest access, stop at the parking in front of the campsite of Aigle, then walk for about 5 minutes along chemin de Vaumalle (towards the ‘Table d’orientation’) - the chapel is on the left.
