This park was once religious property and still has some vestiges of the Petite Chartreuse, a hermitage where Father Crouzet-Lacombe, the last Carthusian father in Villeneuve after the Reévolution, took refuge. You can see the tomb that he prepared in the rock. The chapel, Notre-Dame de Consolation, is at the very top of the park, and was painted with frescoes by Albert Martin, that illustrate the traditional Saint-Marc celebration, related to wine and vineyards.
