  Chapelle de Saint-Henry
  This is one view of the chapel of St-Henry.  Along with the moulin and other interesting buildings on the estate, this chapel and the smaller Chapelle de St-Roch found along the path leading to the château, are very special.   For centuries the latter was the object of pilgrimages ending in the 19th century.  Named for Saint Roch the patron saint of  epidemics, people would come to it to pray for the Saint's help to cure themselves and their loved ones of cholera, the plague, and other contagious diseases.  Today, they are both meaningful places to visit while a guest at Château de Vaulogé.
