Lourdes is situated in southwest France in the region of Midi-Pyrenees. It's an unassuming market town nestled in the Pyrenees not far from the Spanish border. The town is renowned throughout the world amongst members of the Catholic faith and for millions of people becomes a pilgrimage because of the apparitions of 'Our Lady of Lourdes' said to have occurred there in 1858. The spring water from the grotto is also said to have the ability to heal. The popularity of Lourdes as a pilgrimage destination has led to good transport links being introduced, and the town can now be accessed via air as well as via the TGV high speed rail service.
