The chapel
The congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Perpetual
Adoration occupies the buildings of the former convent
of Our Lady of the Victory of Lepante, founded in 1640
by Bishop Gondi. Like other religious establishments, it
was closed in 1792 and sold. The nuns of the Perpetual
Adoration, an order dedicated to the teaching of young
girls, settled in 1804 and rebuilt the chapel on the site
where many martyrs of the French Revolution were
buried. The chapel was built in 1841 by architect Joseph-
Antoine Froelicher..It is also the place of remembrance
of the victims of the Great Terror of 1794, including the
Blessed Carmelites of Compiègne.
