The initial phase of the excavations permitted specialists from the General Council to establish a preliminary archaeological diagnosis, described as preventive, of the chapel and its forecourt. Subsequently, the Regional Archaeological Service (SRA) of the DRAC - Orléans issued directives to the SAT concerning future work. The excavations, which were confined to the chapel and limited in depth (with an average of 2.5 meters below the 20th-century level, with a few deeper excavations), were concluded on-site in May 2013.

The apse possibly was destroyed during the widening of Rue de la Bretonnerie in the 19th century. Nevertheless, the form of the apse remains unknown, whether it was an
