Notre-Dame-des-Miracles Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The cult of the Black Virgin dates back to the 6th century when a Syrian colony was established in this town then called Avenum. The primitive church (1170-1180) houses the miraculous statue of St Pol. Joan of Arc prayed before Our Lady of Miracles. It was during the wars of religion that the statue was burned while the church was ruined (1562). A new statue was inaugurated at the end of the 16th century, the same one that is contemplated. After the Revolution, the building was restored. The church burned down in 1940 but nothing in the chapel was affected by the fire. A new building was built and inaugurated in 1966.

Meung-sur-Loire

Highlight • Settlement

Meung-sur-Loire, which must be pronounced "Main", is a small city on the Loire on the right bank, south of Orléans. In its medieval town, its winding streets and its monuments steeped in history invite you to take a stroll back in time. Along the Quai Jeanne d'Arcune, bucolic perspectives on the river follow one another.
