Sanctuaire de Sainte-Anne-d'Auray

It is common to refer to all the buildings at this site in France as the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes. In reality, the site is made up of a number of different buildings and locations, namely the Grotto of Miracles, the route of the 14 stations of Christ, the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary and the Church (called a Basilica by some, which architecturally spoken is incorrect). St. Anne d'Auray forms the main building and is located in the highest area, with the air cathedral and the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary. Its name was not chosen randomly and it is placed over the grotto where the Virgin Mary appeared.
