Unfortunately my French is rather limited so I basically could only look at the pictures in the Wikipedia. But this looked quite a bit like these "wayside shrines". http://translate.google.be/translate?u=http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potale&langpair=auto|en More generally, visit this page and follow the instructions to translate any page or text selection. And, great, it follows links!!! In the past I also used wayside_shrine for these (or similar ones) in Italy, where there is really lots of these niches with St. Mary or others saints inside, but this might merit also its own tag. We could distinguish between "freestanding boxes" and niches in walls and buildings, and use the shrine-tag only for the first. Yes my monument fits the definition of shrine, which is very broad, but restricted by wayside. But the picture is absolutely not descriptive, which, not knowing the word, made me miss the tag. I finally made it amenity: place_of_worship historic: wayside_shrine name: potale du Christ religion: christian which is exactly what it is, except that St Mary is actually worshiped there. Everyone agreeing with my link to Wikipedia's potale in the OSM definition of wayside_shrine? Thanks.
