During the 20th century, it became known locally as Chapelle de Surel.
In 1854, the commune had a project to purchase a presbytery, the parish house on the site of today's church (the former cure).
In 1860, the church, in poor condition, was rented to a grain and fodder merchant.
During the 20th century, it became known locally as Chapelle de Surel.
In 1922, it became a village hall.
By the early 1930s, it had fallen into disrepair, and the roof and walls were deteriorating.
In 1938, the French government expropriated the Surel chapel in order to install the army's fuel department.
In 1982, the chapel was purchased by the Ministry of the Armed Forces.
A few years later, it was converted into a mini-theater as part of a "Contrat Petite Ville" program.
