Chapel of « Our Lady of Sorrows »Archaeological excavations carried in 1982 have proved that the Chapel, situated on the plain of Bagnols-en-Forêt (Route de Draguignan D47) was constructed on the remains of a Gallo- Roman villa which had been built at the beginning of the First Century A.D.
Saint-Anne’s Chapel
It was a Spaniard : Jean Vigneron, who built this chapel in 1654, in order to thank the king Louis XIVth who had granted him letters patent which gave him French nationality.
He dedicated the chapel to Saint-Anne, the mother of the Virgin Mary to whom he was very devoted. He also paid for the altar and the ornaments, together with the vessels used in worship.

This Chapel dedicated to St-Antony the hermit, already existed in 1660, having been built on the foundations of an older building.

Destination 
A stay in Bagnols offers the pleasures both of the sea and the countryside. This quiet village, perched 300 metres up in the foot-hills of the Esterel, has a population of just under 2,000 ; it is the first village you pass through on the departmental road D4 which takes you from the Mediterranean at Fréjus up into the region of Fayence. Bagnols is cooled in summer by e sea breeze that gently blows over le Pic de la Gardiette, to refresh you as you sit at one of the terraced restaurants, where you will find a warm welcome, in the shade of age-old plane trees in the market square or under a spreading chestnut tree next to the church.
Between the 6 th and 10 th centuries the recorded history of Provence is sparse, mainly because the archives were destroyed during the invasion by Moors and Barbarians ; not till the 11 th century do we begin again to see the name Castrum Bagnols reappearing. From the point of view of the people and their social history there is e clear connection between those people who lived on the Gallo-Roman estates and their continuity into le Castrum Médiéval. In fact the site of the present village dates from the Middle Age. The awners of the large estates or domains became the lords and overlords, pressured by their serfs and farmworkers who demandes help and protection. This was how feudalism was born in our rural areas. In 144 the Bishop became lord of the combined estates in this region. At the end of the 14 th century and beginning of the 15 th brigands pillaged and sacked their way through the country, Bagnols became entirely depopulated and life in the village stopped for 85 yeears.
