Chapel Sainte Dévote, Monaco. It is behind the first turn of the Circuit of Monaco Grand Prix, a tight right-hander, that got his name from it. The chapel is usually obscured by crash barriers and corporate signage on race weekends, so you will probably never catch a glimpse of it on TV. Monaco 1950

Framed through a dark stone archway, the Chapel Sainte Dévote is nestled amongst lush foliage in Monaco, 1950. The light-colored church, with its prominent bell tower, sits at the base of a craggy cliff. Nearby, a circular stone tower with a crenellated top contrasts with a modern building perched on the clifftop. The chapel lends its name to the famed first turn of the Monaco Grand Prix circuit, a tight right-hander located just behind it, though the chapel itself is often obscured from view during race weekends.
