Chaveのおすすめツーリングルート

The actual Marian shrine "La Salette," to which the patronal feast found here refers, is not located in Portugal, but in the French Alps (Grenoble district). It is an important site of Marian devotion, even if it has not achieved the same level of fame as other pilgrimage sites honoring the Mother of God—such as the famous Fatima or Lourdes in the French Pyrenees. In the komoot system, the original Marian shrine "La Salette," the mother church, so to speak, for the patronal feast found here, is naturally also included as a highlight and can be found at the following link =>> https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1861054
