I am delighted to see and see again the basilica of "La chapelle Montligeon" and I am proud to have been the doctor of this charming village. In the year 2000 and following after 40 years of general medicine in Paris. R.G. Dean of the "couch of doctors".

From very humble beginnings, a significant sanctuary with a very unusual patronage has emerged in La Chapelle-Montligeon, one I've never encountered anywhere else: The church here, with the papal distinction of "Basilica Minor," is not one of the usual churches dedicated to Our Lady, but rather specifically to "Our Lady, the Liberator of Souls in Purgatory." The present pilgrimage church was built at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, as the previous building had become far too small for the pilgrims who came here.

Praying for your deceased is more than necessary. If you don't pray for yours, pray for mine. 🙏🏻😇

Before, this place was so unsanitary that the villagers called it the valley of the devils. Monks of the Carthusian order settled and transformed this place so much that they renamed it the "ValDieu". That was before. Now, when modern man transforms his environment, it is to pollute it. I can't wait for the wisdom of the monks to be rediscovered! 🙏🏻😇

An impressive building, this basilica is relatively recent, knowing that it was built at the beginning of the 20th century (completed in 1911).

The construction of the monastery on this site began in 1170. Of course, like many other religious buildings, it was demolished during the revolution, unfortunately after being rebuilt shortly before. Of the building built after the revolution, only the pharmacy, the gatehouse and the chapel remain. Unfortunately it is now privately owned, but the lake and house, in a beautiful setting, are a must see.
