Litlle chapel in the meadow - HBM

Along the banks of the Sarthe, stands this small 15th-century chapel, on the site where Saint Ceneri originally settled. The chapel contains a statue of the saint which is said to have miraculous powers.: young women wishing to get married quickly must bring a needle to stick in the saint's dress - if it stays in place, they get married within the year. Similarly, women wishing to become pregnant can lie down on the large stone on the floor of the chapel, which was the stone on which the saint slept, and can expect to become pregnant quickly...

PETITE CHAPELLE DANS LA PRAIRIE. Le long de la Sarthe, se trouve cette petite chapelle du XVe siècle, à l'endroit où Saint-Ceneri s'est installé à l'origine. La chapelle contient une statue du saint à qui l'on prête des pouvoirs miraculeux : les jeunes femmes qui souhaitent se marier rapidement doivent apporter une aiguille pour la planter dans la robe du saint - si elle reste en place, elles se marient dans l'année...

KLEINE KAPELLE AUF DER WIESE. Entlang des Flusses Sarthe steht diese kleine Kapelle aus dem 15. Jh. an der Stelle, an der sich ursprünglich der Heilige Ceneri niedergelassen hatte. Die Kapelle enthält eine Statue des Heiligen, der wundersame Kräfte zugeschrieben werden : junge Frauen, die schnell heiraten wollen, müssen eine Nadel mitbringen, um sie in das Gewand des Heiligen zu stechen - wenn sie dort stecken bleibt, heiraten sie innerhalb eines Jahres...

Autant je n'aime pas les édifices religieux arrogants de par leur étalage de richesses, autant j'affectionne ces petites chapelles humbles dans la campagne, bien que je ne sois pas croyant. HBM Christa.

Simple is so beautiful, I am not a believer nor a Christian but if I was to believe a place like this would inspire me more than aparatous cathedrals.
