Situated in the Pyrenean foothills, Lourdes has long been an important city. Even before the famed apparitions of Virgin Mary in the mid-1800s, the town was known for its fortified castle on the outskirts of town. After Mary appeared to peasant girl Bernadette Soubirous, Lourdes became one of the world’s most frequently visited pilgrimage sites, boasting a current figure of 6 million visitors per year. A visit to Lourdes would be incomplete without a visit to the place where Lourdes’ religious tourism all started— in the grotto where Bernadette Soubirous first experienced her spiritual visions in 1858. Next-door to the Basilica, this grotto is a pilgrim hot-spot, with visitors in line for half the day to wait to dip themselves in the freezing pool or to light a candle just outside.
