The Trinity Chapel is a gem of Baroque architecture, built by the Jesuits in the early 17th century based on plans by Étienne Martellange. The Trinity Chapel was initially intended for worship, teaching, and music. Its decor was enriched until the end of the 18th century, notably with beautiful polychrome marble facings. In 1802, Napoleon proclaimed the first Italian republic there, and following its deconsecration, it became a gymnasium.

Listed as a historic monument in 1939, the chapel was magnificently restored in the late 1990s by Didier Repellin and is now open as a cultural venue.

Since 2024, it has been managed by La Trinité, which has opened a “new stage for baroque and irregular music”. With a concert season punctuated by festivals, La Trinité offers an innovative program each year that is open to both repertoire and creation, interdisciplinary and passionate about the links between music and nature
