The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 15th century, fourth quarter of the 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
In Felletin, in the Creuse department, the Notre-Dame du Château chapel is an example of late 15th century Limousin gothic architecture. It was built near the town's second castle for the wealthy parish of Beaumont, then the most important in Felletin. The stylistic unity of the building suggests it was constructed over a short period. Two lower chapels were later added along the choir, one of which now serves as the sacristy.
