In the early XVIIth century, the ursulines of Valréas founded a convent at Bollène. They were expulsed in 1792 and nine of them were guillotined in Orang. These religious building now host a local hospital. The convent chapel has an altarpiece in gilded wood executed by the bollénois sculptor "Jean-Baptiste Mezangeau". The central painting surrounded by twisted columms honors "Saint Roch" and "Saint Jacques" with the virgin and the child Jesus. The whole work was classified as a historic monument in 1933.
