MASSABIELLE CAVE
Grotto of Massabielle, one of the most famous in the world, where the Virgin appeared to Bernadette Soubirous, the spring at the bottom left
The grotto at Massabielle is one of the most famous in the world. It was here that the Virgin Mary appeared 18 times to the young shepherdess Bernadette Soubirous. It was also here that the Virgin pointed out the miraculous spring to the saint. Surmounted by the Massabielle rock, the grotto extends 9.50 metres into the ground. The spring is at the far left, and feeds the basins and pools into which pilgrims in search of a miracle plunge. The grotto, also known as the Grotte des Apparitions, receives no less than 6 million visitors a year!

Dejansko smo se tu srečevali romarji iz vsega sveta in si naklonjeno pomagali in se razumeli, ker smo govorili enak jezik, jezik ljubezni.
