[FR] Sa sacristie porte l'étrange nom de « Chambre des moines rouges », allusion à la couleur de la croix des Templiers. Elle servait de lieu de réunion et de recueillement aux Templiers qui séjournaient dans la région. La légende dit qu'entre la chapelle, les calvaires et la fontaine se trouverait un trésor.
