THE LITTLE LOURDES (LE PETIT LOURDES)
Wonderful reconstruction in real masonry of Lourdes in the time of Bernadette according to authentic documents.
Opened in 1954, the Little Lourdes (Le Petit Lourdes) is also the story of a passionate artist, Georges Simenon, who dedicated 25 years of his life to realise his miniature village (scale 1/30th) where nothing is missing: The church of Saint-Pierre, the mills of Lapacca (les moulins du Lapacca), the castle Château fort, the Grotto of Massabielle, the plaster representation of the Basilica (scale 1/20th)…
