All quiet please!

How about hitting the pause button?

The spiritual tour is an open invitation to an original moment of meditation, to discover the life and work of Father Cestac, founder of the Congregation of the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

On your own, or guided by the Sisters of Notre-Dame du Refuge, you will discover the Chapel, a splendid, unadorned building dating from the end of the 19th century, along with the modern stalls of Jean Boutin, the stained glass window of Abbot Cestac and the Museum of Louis Edouard Cestac.

Follow the little path opposite the Chapel which will take you to the Bernadines Convent and its surprising cemetery with sand tombs surmounted by scalloped-shaped crosses. Visit the two chapels: that of the 19th centuryand the primitive chapel in straw.

If you listen, you may hear the prayers murmured here by an emperor and an empress praying for a child.
