La Vierge des 7 douleurs

Perpignan cathedral

 

La Vierge des 7 douleurs.

During Easter Week, don’t miss the superb ‘Vierge des 7 douleurs,’ symbol of the suffering of the mother of Christ,  on display in the chapel de l’Immaculée Conception, as Perpignan cathedral dresses up its statues like real people.

Pop in Thursday and Good Friday when a rare  “sacraire” tabernacle from the XVIIth century is placed in another of the cathedral’s chapels, covered in red velvet and surrounded with flowers and candles, making a fabulous ‘spectacle’ for all to see.
