This church is dedicated to Saint Joseph, the foster father of Jesus Christ. He—like Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist—is a man on the threshold between the Old and New Testaments. Joseph came from the House of David, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. He was a carpenter by trade and the betrothed of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Saint Joseph's feast day in the calendar of saints is March 19th; in addition, the Church celebrates the feast of "Joseph the Worker" on May 1st.

Beautiful view of the Rhône and the Jura mountains

A big surprise was the reference to the grave of this poet and philosopher. His grave is located in a corner of the park of the Château de Brangues and is open to the public.

It is at the bottom of the park, at the end of a small path that winds through the undergrowth, that the poet's grave is located. In accordance with his wishes, Paul Claudel was buried in Brangues, alongside one of his grandsons, Charles-Henri Paris, who died in 1938 at the age of two. It is in this land of Brangues, next to this child and a tall poplar, that the patriarch rests. His wife, Reine Sainte-Marie-Perrin, was buried next to him in 1973. (Access to the tomb is free and signposted for visitors) The epitaph. “Here lie the remains and the semen of Paul Claudel” This inscription is inspired by the epistle of Saint Paul to the Corinthians: “this seed which we put in the ground in the fall, seems to die during the winter, but germinates and comes back to life in the spring”. This is a message of hope. Already in 1892 Paul Claudel addressed this theme: “Below reason, below consciousness, below sense, Below instinct and every lit part of ourselves, Behold, completely lost in a revolt like that of the Conception, We feel that we can no longer defend this within ourselves, Which is like the germinal nucleus, the intimate grain, the seed of our own name! » (Paul Claudel – The Young Girl Violaine) Source: ABVL
