St. Bernadette of Lourdes



Immaculate Conception
Basilica


 
When we routed our departure from our "remote" French hamlet, we discovered we were going to be very near Lourdes and decided we had to add another day in order to visit. We both agreed that our experience was indescribable so we are not going to try. Suffice to say we are so glad we didn't miss it.  We will just post some photos with commentary. The bottom left photo is the area just to the right of the entrance to the Basilica. The bottom right is the nave in the Basilica.
A prospective on the size of the gold crown.
That is a medieval fortress in the background.
