The Notre-Dame du Calvaire chapel dates from the 19th century and was built following a promise made by the parish priest, the Red priest. Erected in height, in a clearing, it is accessible by a stone path from the church of Gy and a porthole allows to distinguish the interior whose paintings have been recently restored, and where the blue color dominates what is without doubt to recall that of the mantle worn by the Virgin.
