Discover Lourdes in an unforgettable day: from visiting the Sanctuary to a refined dinner at Restaurant Le Majorelle, just steps from the Sanctuary and the famous Candlelight Marian Procession.

 

Morning: The Magic of the Lourdes Sanctuary

Lourdes is above all a place of emotion and peace. At dawn, pilgrims head to the Grotto of Massabielle, where the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to Bernadette Soubirous.

Whether you are a believer or a casual visitor, the Sanctuary of Lourdes offers a moment of reflection and beauty.
Stroll along the Gave de Pau, attend an international mass, or light a candle — each moment is steeped in spirituality.

 

Afternoon: Following in Bernadette’s Footsteps

After visiting the Sanctuary, continue your spiritual journey by following Bernadette’s path.
Discover the places that shaped her life:

• Moulin de Boly, her birthplace, where she spent her childhood in simplicity;
• Le Cachot, the modest home of her family;
• The Parish Church of the Sacred Heart, where she was baptized.

Each stop reveals the soul of Lourdes, full of humility and hope.

For a more relaxed afternoon, wander the streets of Old Lourdes, visit the Fortress Castle, or enjoy a coffee terrace with views of the Pyrenees.

 

Evening: Refined Dinner at Restaurant Le Majorelle Lourdes

After a day full of emotions, it’s time for gastronomy!
Located just steps from the Sanctuary, Restaurant Le Majorelle Lourdes is one of the best places for dinner near the Sanctuary.

The chef offers modern French and Italian cuisine inspired by local products:

• Truffle cream gnocchi with Parmesan
• Duck breast from Southwest France
• Basque cheesecake with salted caramel

Homemade dishes, elegant presentation, and attentive service — everything for a delicious and serene evening.

 

And After Dinner?

Just a one-minute walk from the restaurant brings you to the Candlelight Marian Procession, one of Lourdes’ most moving experiences. Seeing thousands of pilgrims walk silently with candles is unforgettable.

After a day following Bernadette’s footsteps, enjoy a gourmet break at Restaurant Le Majorelle Lourdes, then let yourself be enchanted by the Candlelight Marian Procession — just steps away.
