Church in Argelès-sur-Mer
Beautiful view upon arrival, but it was impossible to visit the chapel. The warden was there with a German Shepherd that barked and charged at visitors… he could have reassured them and kept the dog under control during the visit, but no… I think the man just wanted some peace and quiet… nothing better to force people to turn back. There's no point in recommending this hiking route and saying that a visit is possible.
A little effort to repaint the exterior would be nice, otherwise a beautiful view of the Mediterranean upon arrival
A wonderful place where you feel incredible kindness and a profound sense of well-being.
A lovely discovery. A pleasant walk; you don't need to be an experienced hiker. The path and area are well-maintained, including a small chapel. Beautiful view at the end.
The Chapel of Our Lady of Life, nestled in the Albères mountains in Argelès-sur-Mer, is a peaceful sanctuary offering breathtaking views of the Roussillon plain. Founded in the 12th century, it was dedicated first to Saint Mary Magdalene and then to Saint Mary, bearing witness to the epidemics that plagued Roussillon. Today, it remains a place of pilgrimage and religious celebration, a haven of spirituality and history.
