The Saint-Bernardin chapel has been listed on the Inventaire Supplémentaire des Monuments Historiques since October 29, 1926.
In 1552, the Pénitents Blancs of the Saint-Bernardin order, planning to build a chapel dedicated to their saint, received a donation of land adjacent to the Sainte-Catherine church. This is where they built their chapel, at the top of the steep ascent to Les Calades.
The two buildings merge into a single structure, with two different bell towers. The chapel can be recognized by its quadrangular bell tower, 18m high, topped by a polygonal campanile, finished with a dome covered in colored tiles.
Long associated with this important brotherhood, the chapel became the headquarters of the Cannet Sans-Culottes society during the French Revolution.
Permanently disused in 1924, the chapel became a venue for cultural exhibitions on May 11, 1999.
