NOTRE-DAME HOTEL
Read moreNext to the Basilica, the former hostelry Géraud de Graves has been fitted out in 2010-2012 in the former monks' convent. If its foundations date back to the 12th century, important works were carried out in the 17th century under François de Sourdis, then in the 19th century with Cardinal Donnet, who revived the pilgrimage. The interior is richly decorated. The baroque altarpiece in which the statue of Our Lady is incorporated, undertaken in the 14th century, took its present appearance in 1666. The nave and the choir are enriched with naive paintings from the 17th and 18th centuries, as well as numerous ex-votos (boats, hearts, military decorations...). The basilica is the scene of regular pilgrimages which take place on thefirst Sunday from March to November. Those of August 15 and September 8 are the most important. Note that the Sanctuary has a park of 3 hectares. Located on the hillsides overlooking the city of Langon, close to the medieval cities, the Notre-Dame hostel is a place of accommodation with 15 rooms, including 4 that can accommodate people with reduced mobility. Without forgetting the 4 dormitories of 3, 4 and 5 beds. And always with a view on the park! A truly atypical establishment, the Notre-Dame hostelry has been welcoming pilgrims and retreatants of the Notre-Dame de Verdelais sanctuary for over 900 years, but also all types of visitors who wish to experience a peaceful stay. Possibility of catering for groups on reservation. The Museum of Religious Art was inaugurated at the end of the 1990s.
