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!

Lieu très touchant, où l’eau est accessible et les fidèles trouvent le recueillement
L’eau a une saveur particulière
Même en tant que athée j’ai été touché par l’atmosphère de lieu
J’ai adoré comment la basilique et la roche se mélangent architecturalement
Vraiment vaut le détour

Today, visitors can experience the spiritual ambiance of the grotto, where water continuously flows from the earth. Many believe in the holy and miraculous healing properties of these waters, often collecting them from nearby faucets. The presence of the statue of Our Lady of Lourdes adds to the sanctity of the site.
A visit to the Grotte de Massabielle offers a poignant opportunity for reflection and prayer in the midst of Lourdes' sacred surroundings.
