When we walked into the brasserie we met three people dressed in religious garments.
The 150 year anniversary of Bernadettes visitation by the Virgin Mary is in 2016 and preparations have already started.
I did not know she was buried in Nevers. A young boy gave us directions with much excitement.
As a girl I went to a catholic convent and St Bernadette was very special.
It is so difficult to look at her body as it lies serene and angelic encased in the coffin. She was a most humble peasant girl and the photographs of her in her youth in no way resemble how she looks now.
She is petite and her life of holy orders will have changed her appearance.
I am delighted we were led to this most peaceful resting place which is most befitting for such an honoured chosen human being.

Super cadre, équipe dynamique et des personnes avec un grand cœur. Nous sommes très bien renseignés sur le déroulement de la journée. Je remercie particulièrement Martin avec qui j'ai apprécié ma descente en chute libre. Il m'a vraiment fait profiter des plaisirs du saut en parachute. C'est sure je reviendrai bientôt. Gros bisous à toute l'équipe. Claudette du 91

A 10 mn en vélo de Coulanges-les-Nevers, vers la forêt des Bertranges, ce coin de Promenade pédagogique ravira les plus petits et les plus grands par ses sentiers et ses pontons au-dessus de mares, jalonnes de panneaux explicatifs décrivant la faune et la flore dans un environnement s'apparentant à des marais.

Nous avons fait une séance de padel (une première pour nous) à 4 amis + 1 arbitre connaisseur des lieux et de la discipline.
Ce sport est très ludique (entre le tennis et le squash), nous nous sommes beaucoup amusés.
Attention cependant à avoir de bonnes baskets adhérentes car le sol est glissant.
L'idéal je pense est d'avoir des baskets spéciales terre battue.
Possibilité après de prendre sa douche sur place et surtout de boire un petit coup au bar!
La bière de Noël était très bonne!
Cette salle est également équipée d'un terrain de foot 5.

Cette association peut être contactée 8, route de Trangy à Saint –Eloi ou au 03.86.37.11.27. A voir si vous êtes de passage dans la région.

Nevers' Cathedral is unique in that its stained glass windows are modern, having been commissioned in recent times to replace the historical windows that were destroyed when a WWII Allied bomb accidentally hit the Cathedral. The old windows were not gothic stained glass but figured grisaille. The modern ones are beautiful and thematic and have explanations near each window of the theme. There is also in the church a life-sized "mise en tombeau" from the 16th century that is still polychromed, as almost all were originally. Lastly, in contrast to the modern stained-glass, there is a nearly intact 12th century fresco of Christ in Glory above the choir.

The chapel is not elaborate, however, you do get a feeling of solitude. Masses are said all day for different groups of pilgrims coming to visit the chapel. I visited Saint Bernadette in between pilgrim visits and was able to be one with her saying...MoreThank you to share this beautifull moment with us. Best Regards Julitte
