Hôtel Sainte Marie

Lourdes is a market town situated in the Pyrenees. It is part of the Hautes-Pyrénées department in the Occitanie region in southwestern France. Prior to the mid-19th century, the town was best known for its Château fort, a fortified castle that rises up from a rocky escarpment at its center.

If you're seeking a spiritual experience, Lourdes is a must-visit destination. The small town is known for the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, a Catholic pilgrimage site where it is believed that the Virgin Mary appeared to a young girl named Bernadette Soubirous in 1858. Since then, millions of pilgrims have visited the site to seek healing and spiritual guidance.

But Lourdes isn't just a religious destination. The town is also situated in the foothills of the Pyrenees mountains, offering stunning views and outdoor activities such as hiking and skiing. You can also explore the historic castle, Château fort de Lourdes, and the Musée Pyrénéen, which showcases the region's culture and history.
