Chapelle and Sainte-Catherine Spring
Highlight • Religious Site
the legend of the fountain of singles:
So this legend concerns all women who want to find the man of their life in the year. This same fountain in the name of Saint-Catherine would have virtuous water. Indeed, young women came there to throw a coin or a hairpin in order to find a husband.
Prayer:
Saint Catherine be good, we only have hope in you.
You are our boss.
Have mercy on us.
We implore you on our knees, help us get married.
Pité !, give us a husband because we are burning to love.
Deign to listen to the prayer of our deeply loving hearts.
Oh !, you who are our mother, give us a husband.
