Chapel with a beautiful view, a bronze statue of the Virgin and the Child Jesus of 8 m weighing 10 tons on its dome.

Built in 1896, the chapel features a dome topped by an 8-metre-high, 10-tonne gilded bronze statue of the Virgin and Child. Legend has it that a buried statuette of the Virgin Mary was discovered here in the 15th century. Since then, many great names have come here to pay homage, from Louis XIV to Bossuet. The climb to the top is now popular with hikers, who enjoy a unique panorama of the Ouche valley.

Super promenade à faire au milieu des bois, toute la première partie est en montée mais en arrivant en haut nous sommes récompensés par la vue magique sur la valée de l'ouche et par cette somptueuse statue récemment rénovée et dorée à la feuille d'or, qui trône sur la chapelle.
