My understanding is that the town where the Chapel originated is called Chasse, not Chassé ... Can anyone who knows more about French geography confirm (or refute!) this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.30.28.18 (talk) 15:40, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Should it not be made clear somewhere in the article that this building has positively nothing to do with the person of Jeanne d'Arc? It is my understanding that Jeanne never made it further south than the vicinity of Chinon. Unless I hear objections I will add such a disclaimer in a few days time.

The 15th-century St. Joan of Arc Chapel was initially built in the village of Chasse-sur-Rhône, France. Originally called the Chapelle de St. Martin de Seyssuel, it is said to have been the place at which Joan of Arc prayed in 1429 after she had met King Charles VII of France. The present name was given to the chapel when Gertrude Hill Gavin, the daughter of an American railroad magnate, had the derelict building dismantled, transported to America and rebuilt beside her French Renaissance–style château in Brookville, New York, in 1927. The chapel was undamaged when the château burned down in 1962, and was later given to Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, once more being transported stone by stone.
