On the pilgrimage route you reach Montarcher, a small, pleasant village in the arrondissement of Montbrison, located high up but with fewer than 100 inhabitants. The partly Romanesque, partly Gothic village church - the latter recognizable, among other things, by the pointed arch vault typical of this architectural style - is dedicated to the Mother of God, Mary.
