Description

Le 15 août 1914, la bataille faisait rage autour du village. Devant la menace du chef des occupants d’anéantir le bourg au canon et de fusiller toutes les personnes enfermées dans l’église, plusieurs d’entre elles adressèrent alors leurs prières à la Vierge Marie et firent le voeu que si la France remportait la victoire dans cette guerre mondiale, délivrait l’Alsace du joug prussien et sauvait le village, elles érigeraient une statue dédiée en reconnaissance. Ce fut fait le 15 août 1920, jour anniversaire de la bataille de Barembach avec une inauguration en grande pompe de la réplique de la grotte de Lourdes, telle qu’elle existe encore aujourd’hui.
