Montreuil-sur-Maine cave

Highlight • Cave

The Montreuil-sur-Maine cave is a replica of the famous Lourdes cave in the Pyrenees. The cave was built in 1898 by five young girls inspired by the beauty of the site and the apparitions of the Virgin Mary to Bernadette Soubirous. The cave is located on the banks of the Mayenne, where you can also admire the old mill and the lock which regulate the flow of water. The cave is surrounded by a wooded hillside, where you can follow a path with 14 stations of the cross that depict the passion of Christ. The cave is open to visitors all year round.

Château-Gontier Castle

Highlight • Monument

It is the castle that gave its name to the town. Only the fortifications remain. These ramparts are more than millennia old and were built in the 11th century.

Saint Joseph is the patron saint of fathers, workers, but also "of the good mother". This is why he is often chosen to patronize hospital chapels.
Among the reasons which compel us to recognize Saint Joseph as the advocate of the dying, we can notice three main ones:
- his own death took place in the arms of Jesus, his adopted son and of the Most Holy Virgin Mary, the happiest one could wish,
- his quality as the adoptive father of Jesus, the "Sovereign Judge", on whom our eternal salvation will depend,
- his formidable power against the demons who, at the moment of death, give their last attacks with more virulence.
