An ancient place of pilgrimage linked to the presence of a reputedly miraculous spring, the chapel of Saint Jean du Désert is an isolated mountain chapel. The procession has been organized by the Confrérie des Saint Jeanistes since at least the 16th century.
The only way to reach the chapel is on foot. This Entreval tradition, the procession to the chapel of St. John the Baptist, has endured over time, in its form and importance, thanks to a brotherhood dedicated to its organization and dedicated to St. John the Baptist: the Confrérie des Saint-Jeanistes. The Confrérie des Saint-Jeanistes is responsible for moving the reliquary bust of St. John the Baptist, guarding it and paying homage throughout the procession.
