Sanctuary of La Salette of La Rabatelière

The original Marian shrine "La Salette" referred to here is located in the French Alps and is an important Marian shrine, even if this rather inconspicuous place is not nearly as well known as other pilgrimage places in honor of the Blessed Mother - such as Lourdes in the French Pyrenees or Fatima in Portugal.

Arranged on the hillside which dominates the course of the Petite Maine, the sanctuary of La Salette is made up of various constructions which marked the parish life of the end of the 19th century and shows the fervor of the Vendée people for the cult of the Virgin. La Salette is made up of three ensembles and a Stations of the Cross, all in an exotic plant universe. Through a scenography on several levels, Abbé Hillairet reproduced the episodes of the apparition of the Virgin Mary to two young children, Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat. At the top of the hillside, a square keep houses La Croix taken by pilgrims to the Holy Land.

Very beautiful building
