In view of this Marian shrine, a "Chapelle Notre Dame," I would like to offer the viewer a brief reflection from the important French order founder and Doctor of the Church, Saint Bernard of Clairvaux (c. 1090 to 1153). He recommended at the time: "In danger, in doubt, in difficulties, think of Mary, invoke Mary. Do not let her name leave your lips, never let it leave your heart. (...) Under her protection, you have nothing to fear; if she goes before you, you will not tire; if she grants you her favor, you will reach your goal."

Built in 1865 by the Countess of Cossé-Brissac, this chapel was built in homage to Saint Anne, in accordance with the promise made at the birth of her daughter. It is distinguished by its door surmounted by a rosette-shaped stained-glass window and a steeple with a granite balcony. Modest in size, the chapel was initially reserved exclusively for the service of the lords of the manor.

Magical town with a fairytale castle. (however, I recommend you swerve the Logis Hotel-Restaurant du Chateau). Or if you can find no other accommodation, at least avoid eating in the restaurant, which was one of the few outright poor places to eat I've found in France.

The term "basilica," used above by Vincent Reboul, can have two different meanings for places of worship: + First, as an architectural style: In the Roman Empire, basilicas were secular buildings (market halls or courtrooms); the early Christian era partially adopted this architectural style and, for this purpose, also the term "basilica." + Second, "basilica minor" is an honorary title for special places of worship throughout the world (regardless of the aforementioned architectural style), which has been personally awarded by the Pope since the 18th century.

Very beautiful castle on the canalized Oust

Although I often stop in churches or chapels on my walks (if the door is not locked), I have never come across a place of worship that is dedicated to the patronage of Saint-NICODEME. The person of Nicodemus takes us far back to the Holy Land in Jesus' time; he is mentioned several times by at least one of the four evangelists. I did some more research this morning: In his version of the "Good News" (this is the meaning of the word "gospel"), John describes the encounter of a Nicodemus, a scribe and member of the Jewish High Council, who visits Jesus at night and has a discussion with him about faith (John 3:1-21). Later, at the meeting of the High Council, he speaks in Jesus' favor: "But Nicodemus, one of their own, who had previously visited Jesus, said to them, 'Does our law condemn a man before it has examined him and found out what he does?'" (John 7:50-51). After the crucifixion, it is Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus who bury the body with dignity (John 19:38-42).

The old castle is now partially open to the public. It looks very defensive.

Beautiful picturesque town with a spectacular castle and old half-timbered houses
