Imposing rock that Napoleon III decided to use as an anchor point for the dyke of the Port du Refuge that he wanted to create.
So this rock was connected to the land by a wooden bridge (replaced by a metallic footbridge attributed to Gustave Eiffel) and pierced by a tunnel like the Atalaye, to allow the bringing of the blocks of stone intended for the construction of the dike. This rock owes its current name to the statue of the virgin erected on its summit in 1865.
