Built between 1489 and 1512 by Jean de Toulbodou, in thanks for a wish granted during a violent storm, it impresses as much for its history as for its architecture. It is accessed by a monumental staircase which leads successively to the Saint-Michel oratory, to an ossuary dug into the rock, then to the chapel itself. Upon arrival at the site, one is greeted by a campanile housing a bell reputed to ward off lightning. Engraved on the console of a statue and on a phylactery held by an angel, two Gothic inscriptions recall the start and end dates of the work

North of the village of Le Faouët, on a ridge, stands the late Gothic Chapel of Sainte-Barbe, built between 1489 and 1512. A remarkable Renaissance staircase leads down to the chapel, which is located just below the summit plateau. - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Faou%C3%ABt_(Morbihan)#Kapelle_Sainte-Barbe - https://www.france-voyage.com/frankreich-stadte/le-faouet-20502/kapelle-sainte-barbe-15016.htm
