Inattendue dans le bocage...


Cette basilique surprend par ses dimensions dans un petit village de la Suisse Normande. Autrefois il y avait une ancienne église, un lieu connu de pèlerinage pour vénérer la Vierge Marie. Les pèlerins étaient de plus en plus nombreux (évalués à environ 15 000 au 19ème siècle). Devenue trop petite et vétuste, l'église fut remplacée par cette basilique dont les travaux commencèrent en 1895. L'antique église fut démolie en 1903, après les fêtes d'inauguration de la nouvelle!
UNEXPECTED IN THE LANDSCAPE... This basilica is surprisingly large in a small village in Swiss Normandy. In the past there was an old church, a well-known place of pilgrimage to venerate the Virgin Mary. The number of pilgrims was increasing (estimated at about 15 000 in the 19th century). The church had become too small and dilapidated and was replaced by this basilica, work on which began in 1895. The old church was demolished in 1903, after the inauguration of the new one!
IN DIESER LANDSCHAFT UNERWARTET... Diese Basilika überrascht mit ihren Ausmassen in einem kleinen Dorf in der Normannischen Schweiz. Früher stand hier eine alte Kirche, ein bekannter Wallfahrtsort, um die Jungfrau Maria zu verehren. Die Zahl der Pilger wurde immer grösser (im 19. Jh. wurde sie auf etwa 15 000 geschätzt). Da die Kirche zu klein und baufällig geworden war, wurde sie durch diese Basilika ersetzt, deren Bau 1895 begann. Nach den Einweihungsfeierlichkeiten der neuen Kirche wurde die alte 1903 abgerissen!
