    Already a place of worship in Roman times, the first chapel was founded there in the 15th century.
    This place then became a place of pilgrimage and the hermits who lived there welcomed Saint Francis de Sales at the end of the 16th century.
    In 1967, the first Sisters of Bethlehem settled in Voirons. The convent was built in the late 1980s and consecrated in the early 1990s. It is open to retreatants and there is a shop for tourists.
