The Basilique Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours de Neuvizy is a Catholic basilica located in the village of Neuvizy. A pilgrimage is organized in the church and on the Marial road on the outskirts of the village in May and on August 15, which has earned Neuvizy the nickname “Le Lourdes Ardennais”. Pope John Paul II decided to elevate it to a basilica in 2002. The history of this basilica began on April 30, 1752, when eight children attending catechism in Villers-le-Tourneur discovered a statuette of the Blessed Virgin, surrounded by a halo of light, near a small fountain on an oak tree in the woods from Neuvizy. They knelt down and recited the Salve Regina, the Souvenez-vous and many prayers and other songs. In 1818, a cross was erected in the forest, in the presence of Charles Poit, the last survivor of the event. At that time, the church of the village was just a simple and small structure, but after the multiplication of phenomena, pilgrims came in more and more numbers to pray before the miraculous statue placed inside the modest chapel of the village. So a bigger church had to be built. Under the impetus of the parish priest at the time, Canon Nicolas Valentin, the foundation stone for a new church was laid on May 4, 1865, in the presence of 10,000 pilgrims. This priest supervised the construction of the new sanctuary and was also the assistant architect, carpenter, painter and main sculptor. On the outside, a marble indicates that this canon rests under the trumeau of the church. Most of this religious monument was completed in late 1876.

The church and the village were founded by the Saint-Remi abbey of Reims. The commune has 22 hamlets. Passage of the Reims-Cologne Roman road.

The plan of the church is almost rectangular, the transept and apse show a faint projection. A crest overlooks the first bay of the nave, which has three. To the northeast, two watchtowers rise above the buttresses of the apse. The transept, adjoining chapels and choir are in late Gothic style. The choir is shallow, with Renaissance medallions depicting the four evangelists2. The first two spans of the nave are capped, the third is vaulted. Also striking inside is the 16th century stone pieta, which steps on a dragon with the head of a man and the body of a serpent.

Saint Martin, to whom the church of Aubigny-Les-Pothees is dedicated, is - next to Saint Nicholas - probably one of the most popular saints of all. The memorial day of the former officer in the Roman army is November 11th. On the night after the famous “coat sharing”, when he surrendered half his army cloak to a freezing beggar, Jesus Christ appears to him in a dream. He then converted to Christianity and was later elected Bishop of Tours (France) - initially against his will.

This church is named after Remigius von Reims (* probably 436 in Laon; † January 13 or 15, 533 in Reims) was a bishop from the Gallo-Roman nobility in the east of what is now France. He became known through the baptism of the Merovingian king Clovis I and is venerated as one of the great saints of the Frankish people. Remigius came from a wealthy family. He was called to be a bishop at the age of 22. After the conquest of his home region by Franks invading from the east, he successfully endeavored to integrate the new rulers into the late Roman tradition, both socially and religiously. In particular, he made it his task to Christianize the Franks for the Roman Church and to move them to turn away from Arianism, to which they partly adhered. He is therefore also referred to as the "Apostle of the Franks". He is also considered the founder of several dioceses in France. Together with Queen Chlothilde, the wife of Clovis, Remigius is seen as a pioneer of Christianity in Europe. At Christmas just before the year 500 - there are sources that mention 497, 498 or 499 - he is said to have baptized Clovis and 3,000 more francs. While the bishop was performing this act, he said to the king: “Now bow down your head, proud Sicamber, and submit it to the gentle yoke of Christ! Worship what you have burned so far and burn what you have worshiped so far! " Source: Wikipedia
