Really incredible historic place to see. Remember that it has 300 midevil steps, so if you're not physically fit you will need to factor in extra time for your visit.
Eintritt für eine Kirche. Was für eine Schande. An entry fee for a church. What a disgrace. Des taux d'entrée pour une église. Quelle honte. And that in a place with a taxe de séjour. You should think about what you are actually doing with your life.
Incredible sight really worth the short trek up the stairs built around the hill. The chapel on-top goes back to 968...
If u r at the region not far from Clermont - Ferrand. Nice view of the city and all the' chaine de puy ' from far.
Unbelievable achievement to build a chapel on top of a very high rock. Go in the early evening and observe a service before the long walk down. Also visit the Mary and Jesus statue on an even higher rock and experience the son et Lumiere show in the evenings. Brilliant place to visit. The town is called Puy en Velay.
The chapel of Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe, perched atop an 85 metres high needle (aiguilhe) of rock, is nothing short of amazing. This had been a sacred place for thousands of years. Originally, a prehistoric dolmen was built there, the Romans later dedicated it to Mercury and then in 969 Christians built the chapel to St. Michael. It's hard going climbing the 268 stone steps that wind their way up the side of the rock to get to the Chapel but it really is worth it. The views are amazing. It's a must visit.
Very old church, well kept, with some frescoes. Worth visiting.
