The Little Chapel

The Little Chapel is situated in the Les Vauxbelets valley, Saint Andrew, Guernsey. It was created in July 1914, by Brother Déodat. He planned to create a miniature version of the grotto and basilica at Lourdes, the Rosary Basilica. The Little Chapel is decorated with seashells, pebbles, and broken china. From a distance the colours and design make a pleasing whole, close-up it's amazing to see all the different pieces used to create the effect. It has room for around eight people
