Oratoire Saint-Gens

  • Historic site and monument
  • Religious heritage
405 Route d'Eyragues, 13670 Verquières
Located on the road to Eyragues, this beautiful votive oratory dedicated to
Saint-Gens consists of a low pedestal with a cornice and an entablature supporting the niche. The roof is in the shape of a basket handle, a form not
often found in the area due to its difficulty in construction, with decorative lateral volutes.

Saint-Gens was honored in the region until the beginning of the century by a pilgrimage in May to invoke rain during periods of drought.
