Location: Saint-Sauveur, Gap, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Provence, Provence-Alpes-Côte D'Azur, France
This church was not dedicated to one of the many people whom we venerate as blessed or saints and ask for their heavenly intercession with God, or - like so many French churches - to the Mother of God ("Notre-Dame").
The chosen patronage here was the incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ himself, and this church was consecrated to him under the title “SAINT SAUVEUR” – i.e. as the Redeemer and Savior (Latin: “Salvator”).
