メニル・ラ・トゥール周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

信者がロザリオの祈りの中で瞑想的に黙想するために、いくつかのテキストのバリエーションがあります。古い伝承によれば、教会には「秘跡」（ギリシャ語の「ミステリウム」から来ており、神学では、神の助けなしには人間にはアクセスできないものの啓示を意味します）と呼ばれる3つのバージョンがあります。すなわち、「喜びの秘跡」/「苦悩の秘跡」/「栄光の秘跡」です。教皇ヨハネ・パウロ2世は、2002年10月、使徒書簡「rosarium virginis mariae」で「光の秘跡」を追加しました。 さらに、さまざまな教区やグループでロザリオの祈りが拡張されることは珍しくありません。私がかつて祈りの紙で見つけて、ここで紹介したい特別なバリエーションは、「平和のロザリオ」であり、5つの秘跡は次のとおりです。 + 天使が平和を告げたイエス、その誕生（ルカ 2, 8-14参照） + 私たちの歩みを平和の道に導くイエス（ルカ 1, 67-79参照） + 平和をもたらす人々を祝福したイエス（マタイ 5, 3-12a参照） + 平和をもたらすために弟子たちを送ったイエス（マタイ 10, 7-13参照） + 私たちに平和を残してくださったイエス（ヨハネ 14, 23-27参照）

The cult of the Virgin is ancient in Lorraine, particularly on the Hill of Sion. The apparitions of Lourdes after those of La Salette mark the souls of a very Christianized population in the countryside. Pilgrimages to Lourdes gained momentum in the 1880s. In 1883, there were 1,600 pilgrims from Lorraine. The momentum was given. The idea naturally came to evoke or reproduce the Massabielle cave. https://www.bruley.mairie54.fr/fr/la-replique-de-la-grotte-de-lourdes.html

The general plan of the Rosary Chapel is reminiscent of the Rosary Basilica in Lourdes. It was built from 1892 to 1894 to the plans of the architect Jacquemin at the initiative of Canon Demange and then his brother. The chapel has three alveoli for the three mysteries: joyful mystery, painful mystery, glorious mystery. Each cell has five windows and five tables. The entire esplanade and the Rosary chapel were listed in the supplementary inventory of Historic Monuments in July 2005. https://www.bruley.mairie54.fr/fr/la-chapelle-du-rosaire.html

One of Vauban's designs for the town of Toul consisted of demolishing the already existing fortifications and enlarging the surface of the town by inserting all the nearby suburbs within a single bastioned enclosure. This project was chosen by the king and work began on May 12, 1700, but, contrary to Vauban's wishes, inside the city and not outside. The work progressed only slowly, the city having lost all interest after the signing of the peace treaties. The ramparts and parapet were completed in 1722. In the first half of the 1740s, the canal locks were completed and the only complete peninsula was completed. But the work stopped there and the project was not completed.

Toul Cathedral celebrated its 800th anniversary in 2021 (although it was not completed until after 1500). The monumental building dominates the cityscape from afar?

The fortification of Toul goes back to a plan by Vauban from 1697. However, the fortification was never completed.

The town hall building

Impressive Gothic cathedral of Toul, which houses one of the largest cloisters in France! It was stripped of its statues during the French Revolution but kept its superb. Also worth seeing: its two cloisters and the adjoining garden, very pleasant for taking a break in the shade.
