Description by the author

Appearing at the bend of a winding path through the countryside, the Basilica
of Avioth, nicknamed the "basilica of the fields," surprises every visitor.
This church, dating from the 13th and 14th centuries, will delight visitors with its exterior architecture and period interior decorations.
A jewel of flamboyant Gothic art, the Recevresse, intended to receive the offerings of pilgrims, is a unique monument in the world.
Finally, you will be amazed by the presence of the statue of the Virgin, whose
miraculous appearance was the origin of the basilica's construction.
An important pilgrimage site, located 2 km from Belgium, the building was long considered
the most beautiful church in Luxembourg.
