Ermitage de Bermont

Located in the commune of Greux, in the Vosges department, three kilometers north of Jehanne d?Arc?s birthplace, the chapel and hermitage of Bermont have watched over the Meuse valley for over a thousand years. Jehanne loved to go there on pilgrimage, on Saturdays and often during the week, to offer candles and flowers to Notre Dame, to meditate and pray.

The foundation of this poor sanctuary is lost in the mists of time, in the shadow of Saint Maurice and Saint Martin. A humble land of the Church, a discreet witness to the history of France since Hugues Capet, Bermont has nonetheless survived the trials of the centuries. Today, the Notre Dame de Bermont ? sainte Jehanne d?Arc association, a simple link in a long chain, is striving to restore this modest sanctuary, while respecting its history and eremitical tradition, and to help visitors discover its endearing story.

The chapel contains wall paintings from the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries, as well as 14th-century Gothic statues of Notre-Dame de Bermont and Saint-Thiebault.
Outside, you'll find a contemporary bronze statue erected in 2012 to mark the 6th centenary of Joan of Arc's birth.
