View over the village

This stone bridge, once an important crossing, is now partly collapsed, but its still visible arches offer a fascinating spectacle. Walking around the ruins, one can admire the tranquil beauty of the river flowing below, surrounded by lush vegetation.

This very striking rock needle near Le Puy-en-Velay, crowned with a chapel, is dedicated to the Archangel Michael / Michel. After a strenuous day of pilgrimage, it takes a little effort to make the climb here, but without exception all of our small group of pilgrims conquered the steps and were delighted by this simply designed Romanesque chapel, which offers a wonderful atmosphere of peace and prayer. On the patronage: The name Michael / Michel (from Hebrew) means "Who is like God?". He is often depicted - in paintings or as a statue - with a flaming sword, or occasionally a lance. Michael is - together with Raphael, Gabriel and Uriel - one of the four archangels who (according to human belief) occupy the highest rank in the heavenly hierarchy of angelic beings. Their common feast day in the calendar of saints is September 29th.

Magnificent, to pass on foot

This sublime road lets you sneak along the Loire. If the road is laid out, however, be careful because the cars driving on it can drive fast.
