Mary Magdalene's Grotto and Saint-Pilon trail

La chapelle de Saint-Pilon

Description

The Chapelle du Saint-Pilon chapel is thought to have been built in the 14th century on the site of a pillar (from the Provençal pieloun), a stone column onto which, according to Provençal tradition, Mary Magdalene was lifted seven times per day by angels from the cave. Ravaged during the French Revolution, it underwent major restoration work undertaken by a Compagnons du Devoir team between 2015 and 2017. From the chapel, visitors can enjoy a 360° view, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Provençal hinterland.
