PRESBYTTE
Go there and contact
Ideally located opposite the St. Croix Abbey, this presbytery was built during the 1870 s. The building, by its surprising dimensions, is almost reminiscent of a particular hotel! With a classical style order, the facade includes rows of high windows. There are two floors, one of them included in a large triangular pediment surmounted by occuli (round windows). This imposing building, in large areas, was occupied by several Church men. In the past, there was a total: a priest, three vicars, not to mention a beautiful flat apartment, exclusively reserved for the bishop! As a result, the Presbytère presbytery was long nicknamed «the little Vatican»! Today, you can reach it through a wooden entrance portal, adorned with a beautiful framing of carved stones. At its summit, a statue of the Virgin is distinguished in a niche, protective of the place.
