This church, dedicated to the Holy Cross (Latin: "Santa Croce"), derives its patronage from the cross on which Jesus Christ died. The veneration of the Holy Cross is largely based on Saint Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine the Great (who, after his victory at the Milvian Bridge in Rome, recognized Christianity as a religion and ended the long period of persecution with the Edict of Toleration of Milan in 312). She made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land (Israel/Palestine) in the early fourth century and brought numerous relics back to Europe, including the "True Cross," on which Jesus Christ was crucified. Helena is therefore often depicted with a cross as an attribute. The Church celebrates the Feast of the Discovery, public presentation, and veneration of the Holy Cross—called the "Exaltation of the Holy Cross"—on September 14th.

Be careful, narrow and slippery roads!

The Basilica is visible from all sides. There are many walks you can take here.

The remarkable "Tour de l'horloge" in Avallon is a massive gate tower integrated into the city wall and dates back to the 14th century, while the rare clock dates back to the 15th century.

Nice path, but be careful, some sections are not very visible with the autumn leaves, plus the path can be technical in some places with uprooted trees and rocks.

As part of the Way of St. James, the church is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Imposing city gate. The street towards the gate has many restaurants, behind the gate steep streets lead out of the city.

Avalon is a really pretty town on a hill. There is a shopping street and lots of restaurants. AND: A Shimano specialist workshop with lots of experience and great flexibility to repair racing bikes at short notice! 😀
