Sanctuaire de Notre Dame des Portes
Chateauneuf Du Faou.
It looks like Notre-Dame-des-Portes, Roger. It has a fascinating history. When the Huguenots murdered the Catholic inhabitants of the area a ciborium, the vessel that holds consecrated bread hosts, was dashed to the floor. The priest, in accordance with the beliefs of the time, immediately knelt and consumed the spilled hosts and was slain on the spot. As a result this church became a place of pilgrimage once it was safe to have pilgrimages after the King's conversion to Catholicism. With thanks to foggyray.......Ray.
