    Upon arriving at Notre-Dame de la Gorge, one discovers a group of fourteen small oratories that mark the path leading to the church.

    Their construction was decided by the priest Gaillard in 1728, above all to give even more brilliance to the Marian cult already present in this place. Five "Joyful Mysteries", five "Sorrowful Mysteries" and five "Glorious Mysteries" make up the Rosary and mark the stages of the life of the Virgin Mary.
