NOTRE-DAME DES NEIGES
Go there and contact
So named because of its location at the foot of the Piton des Neiges, the church is built in the Art Deco style of the 1930s. Its half-moon façade makes it original. The nave and choir were made by cabinetmakers from the Rivière-Saint-Louis region. Before entering, on the left, the tomb of Father Boiteau, a builder much appreciated by the villagers. When his death was announced, the faithful built the tomb in a single night. For some, it has miraculous virtues. Since the year 2000, the church has been listed in the inventory of historical monuments.

A voir aussi le soir, toute illuminée en bleu.
Située au bout du centre ville, on aperçoit de loin cette magnifique église à la façade blanche ornée d’une croix bleue. Magnifique carillon qui sonne et résonne dans le cirque. Très belle esplanade avec un beau panorama sur la ville de Cilaos et les montagnes avoisinantes. Pas de visite intérieure, c’était l’office.
