According to biblical accounts, the apostle "Saint Jacques" was the first person to be executed for his faith, as recorded in the Acts of the Apostles, making him an early martyr (blood witness) of Christianity. His tomb in the town named after him, "Santiago de Compostela" (Galicia, Spain), is one of the most famous and important pilgrimage destinations in the world and is often ranked third after Jerusalem and Rome. Yesterday (July 25) was his feast day in the calendar of saints. When this date falls on a Sunday (this was last the case in 2021), the Catholic Church celebrates a special "Holy Year" there (extended by Pope Francis until 2022 due to the coronavirus pandemic).

The place to take a break in Illiers-Combray.

Easy and very beautiful hike following the river and pond; however, be careful at the roundabout on the way back to Lucé.

Very beautiful church from the 15th century with a painted wooden beam ceiling.

Unfortunately, the church was not accessible when I visited (mid-September 2024). You could only look in through a gate and the dance of death depictions on the left side were not really visible. In front of them were transparencies with skeleton drawings. Maybe those were the depictions...

Florence CT's advice should be put into perspective because her experience as an "effective practitioner" is limited to a single outing...so far and, above all, a lot of planning!!!

A unique example of wonderful architecture exuding the opulence and power of religion.

This castle dates back to the 12th century, although some parts were added later. Its imposing tower was present from the beginning. As for the Saint Nicholas chapel, it is known for its Gothic decorations.
