Fontaine des Miracles

Situated on the edge of the ancient gulf of Santons, near the Tower of Broue and the church of Saint-Symphorien, sheltered under a small chapel that has now disappeared, the fountain of La Gripperie known as "Fontaine des Miracles" is known to cure rheumatism. From the 16th century until 1914, many people came there on pilgrimage. A rumor says that on the evening of the 22nd of August, the day of the feast of the holy patron , the waters were bubbling, and around the fountain were crowded paralytics, who found their mobility back .
