The former village of Montclar was located on the summit now known as La Salette. A chapel and a clock tower can be seen there, both of which were built in the 19th century.

The Saint-Jean Chapel was built at the beginning of the 13th century by the Hospitallers of Saint John of Jerusalem and restored by the Hospitallers in 1644. The Saint-Léger Chapel was restored in 1968–1969; its architecture is considered to be rustic 13th-century Romanesque architecture. The Church of Saint-Pierre in La Chapelle was built in 1555.
