Join us for the traditional feast of St. John the Baptist, with religious songs sung by the Saint-Jeannistes brotherhood, St. John's bonfire, and join the villagers for whom this feast is very important. Funfair on Place Moreau.
Since time immemorial, people in Entrevaux have considered a spring to be miraculous, and so they naturally built a place of worship around it. Much later, they built a chapel in this isolated spot. This is the chapel of Saint Jean-du-Désert, which is visited twice a year by a pilgrimage that is always well attended.
