In Nice, the Chapelle de la Visitation occupies a historic chapel that now presents contemporary art exhibitions. Its French religious architecture dates from the seventeenth century. The building once formed part of a convent connected with Saint Jeanne de Chantal and Saint François de Sales. Stained glass windows from 1875 illuminate its interior. The windows depict episodes from Saint François de Sales’s life and connect the chapel with religious history. Contemporary artists bring new work into this historic setting. The exhibition programme presents varied artists and styles, while curator Philippe Piguet accompanies the displays through meetings. Families find a game booklet for exploring the displayed artists and their work. The Famille Plus programme supports children’s activities, family visits, and thematic workshops linked to exhibitions. Stroller access helps families with young children. The exhibition hall stands near parking and public transport in the heart of Nice. The chapel joins stained glass, architecture, and contemporary art.
