The pilgrimage
Why this road exists
The tears. La Salette is the apparition of a Mother who is not smiling for a holy card.
How the days are spent
Reconciliation is the sanctuary’s own word. There is a reason.
La Salette
Sanctuary of Our Lady of La Salette
1846. Two children, a weeping Madonna in the high Alps, a call to conversion that was also a warning. Approved, loved, sometimes argued over. You go because she was in tears, and because mountain silence is a good place to ask why.
