The most beautiful religious buildings Alpes-De-Haute-Provence

On the hills, you will find this small chapel that offers a beautiful view of the village. Tradition demands that women wishing to have a child should go up to the chapel with an egg in each hand during a first pilgrimage (Easter Monday), swallow one and burry another on the site. Their wish was granted if during the second pilgrimage (September 8), they found the second egg intact where they had buried it!

Classified as a historical monument, it was destroyed and then rebuilt between the 12th and 14th centuries. The Saint-Sauveur church is in the Provencal Romanesque style, especially its central nave and its basements. The lateral naves have been added to the 16th and 17th centuries, with gothic decorative elements. The church houses an organ of baroque style and the oldest and the most elaborate wrought iron bell tower in Provence (1725).

Classified as Historic Monument since 1913, Our lady of Bethlehem, one of the largest churches of High Provences with its 32 metres high, is part of its hidden treasures. To access it, you need to explore a long trail that climbs up to the old village of Walnut-sur-Jabron, abandoned for decades. This building was built in the th century and depends on the Monastery of Ganagobie. 

Dating back to the th century, this Romanesque Romanesque chapel is all that remains of a priory founded by the Abbey Saint-Michel-de-la-Gorges (Piedmont). From the th century to the th century, the Priory was held by the Order of Malta. Painted wooden altar, statues, paintings, motif on the ceiling of the choir are to be seen inside. Since 1992, there have been masses for the Saint Laurent (10/8) and All.
