Such a magical journey to find this place. It was not easy but we finally arrived at the holy place. There is a Lourdes grotto replica near the entrance and it was such a serene place I may say. Getting into the chapel where St. Bernadette incorrupted body lying in state was both emotional and exhilarating. As a Catholic, visiting this place is really a true blessing for me and it added a strong affirmation to my faith. Thank you God the father in heaven for leading me here..
We visited St. Bernadette's place of repose. The chapel is simple and a place to pray quietly. Masses are offered regularly in this holy place.
On ne peut qu'être impressionné par la visite de l'église et du corps intact de Bernadette dans sa châsse de verre.
Atmosphère paisible, propre à la réflexion et à la contemplation. Mais ne pas prendre les repas sur place, car léger et onéreux.
Il posto e' ben curato, per visitare il giardino dove Bernardette coltivava i suoi fiori, si accede direttamente dalla zona della chiesa. Probabilmente l'accesso dovrebbero farlo pagare prima, o non farlo proprio pagare, magari i visitatori lasciano, comunque l'offerta. Santa Bernardette e' di una bellezza purissima. Peccato che il luogo, in se' , io non lo abbia riconosciuto o "sentito" sacro. Nevers e' poco ospitale e , secondo me, e' strano che pochi fedeli si rechino a trovare la santina buona. All'interno dell' Espace sono gentili, ma il resto degli abitanti non mi e' piaciuto... Forse St Bernardette doveva stare a Lourdes ..
Dans cadre reposant et spirituel, la visite a au moins le mérite de connaître la vie de SAINT BERNADETTE. On peut y déjeuner et le eprix est correct.
Apres une visite a Sainte Bernadette, un petit tour au musée puis a la boutique. Nos amis sont toujours impressionnés par cet endroit!!
un petit paradis de calme tout proche du centre ville. Bcp d'emotion à cette visite.complet à tout point de vue : gite et couvert proposés.
Here it is where Bernadette of Lourdes is burried. She lies in a shrine in the "church" but you can't take pictures of the shrine. If you are a (practicing) catholic, I think this place must really be spiritual because the virgin Mary appeared 17 times to Saint-Bernadette. She died in Nevers on the 16th of April 1879 at the age of 35. Furthermore there is a bookshop and a small museum.
Je ne parlerai pas de la Châsse de Bernadette, laissant à chacun ses opinions. Par contre, j'ai fait un tour à la boutique de souvenirs qui sont probablement identiques à ceux vendus à Lourdes. Il venait certainement d'y avoir eu une livraison car le magasin était encombré de cartons vides mentionnant "Made in China".
