There's a lot more than just the chapel here.

The chapel is lovely and birds were nesting in the porch eaves which was nice. There is a small museum and a gift shop with lots of tourist literature. The lady who runs the place is very pleasant.

Excellent small museum in the French WWI cemetery

Small, intimate...and the owner, man with the keys, opened up when asked. Wonderful quiet space to contemplate the horrors of the Somme Battlefield.
