Many churches in France, including this chapel, are dedicated to the Virgin Mary under the widely used title "Notre-Dame" (in German: "Our Dear Lady"). A brief thought on the Mother of God from Albino Luciani (Pope John Paul I):
"Mary is indeed our sister, as Saint Ambrose says. She led a life very similar to ours. It is of course beautiful to venerate Mary as the Virgin and Mother of God, as the one conceived immaculately by original sin and taken up into heaven; but she is also the Madonna of plates, brooms and cooking pots..."
Every visitor to this small Marian shrine can decide for themselves which "Notre-Dame" they would like to venerate here.

In 1542, construction of a first oratory to house a statue of the Virgin reputed to be miraculous.
The chapel, which had become a place of pilgrimage, was enlarged in 1721 and burned down during the German attack in June 1940.
Bell tower and nave are destroyed, but the choir is saved. Rebuilt in September 1940.

The chapel is located directly on the GR5 and offers a drinking water point 👍
