Explore every facet of Lourdes, from its sacred heart to its historical soul. This in-depth experience combines the Sanctuaries, the Old Town, and a visit to the Château Fort and Pyrenean Museum, offering a complete picture of Lourdes' faith, culture, and traditions.
Start at the Sanctuaries, where you’ll visit the Grotto of Massabielle, the site of the apparitions. Your guide will take you to the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, the small chapel built on the demand of Our Lady, the Crypte, the Rosary Basilica, and the Basilica of Pius X.
Next, head into the historical city centre where Bernadette grew up. See the house where she was born, the place where the family lived during the apparitions: le cachot, and the Parish Church of Lourdes.
Finally, visit the oldest building in the city; the majestic Castle of Lourdes with its Pyrenean museum! From the castle's terraces, admire one of the most beautiful panoramic views over the Sanctuaries, the valley of Lourdes and the Pyrenees mountains.
