The Chapelle de Fouilly is a chapel located along the main road going from the town center  of Les Houches to Les Chavants and the bottom of the Prarion lift station. The chapel was built in 1649 and has been consecrated to Saint Francis de Sales. We don't have any more historical information on the chapel but if you do then please contact us.


The Chapelle Fouilly is located on the main road which is not super pedestrian friendly to be honest. The road is quite narrow and is shared with cars and busses going in both directions. If you are near Lac Chavants then you could drop by and have a look. There is also a trail with a trail marker for the direction of Col de la Forclaz and Col de Voza very near to the chapel on its south side. If  you are going in that direction from Les Houches then the chapel is an easy add-on.
