Sainte-Anne d’Auray
3rd place of pilgrimage after Lourdes and Lisieux, the city sanctuary Sainte-Anne d’Auray is the first site of Catholic pilgrimage in Brittany. The Basilica combines Gothic and
Renaissance styles with sumptuous stained-glass windows reminiscent of the apparitions, the pilgrimage and the life of Saint Ann. The cloister, built in the 17th century and with exceptional architecture, presents a beautiful collection of ex-voto. Other religious monuments stand in the park: the Scala Santa, the sailors’ stele, and the John Paul II Space and the Memorial. Every year, on 26th of July, the great pardon gathers thousands of pilgrims.
