Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-Vacquières

Many legends circulate about this chapel and its spring. According to one legend, it was a cow that discovered the spring with miraculous properties by scratching the ground with its hooves.The name «Notre Dame des Oeufs» (common name today) comes from the fact that it housed a Black Virgin for a long time, to whom people offered eggs, a symbol of fertility, because spring water was known for healing.

Extra information : This chapel now belongs to private individuals who have notably rebuilt the building at the back, which unfortunately cannot be seen. Don’t hesitate to throw a coin into the small basin next to the spring and make a wish! You never know...
