Rocamadour

We visited the sanctuary at Rocamadour several years ago in the middle of winter so we returned yesterday to check things out while it was a tad more ‘ouvert’. The last time we were here it was under scaffolding but this time the Black Madonna was suitably attired in a frock and crown along with her accompanying child. She is truly beautiful and, I think, looks a lot better sans dress but perhaps she is a little warmer in her robe. The village below is full of the usual tourist shops but has a pleasant feel and isn’t too overdone.

Perhaps we’ll come back in another few years.
