Eglise Notre-Dame de la Nativité
(Nativity of the Blessed Virgin)
(concluded)


  The former religious life was paved with processions which enhanced the importance of some ceremonies. Hereunder on the left you can see the procession in Main Street of the youth taking their first communion: the boys first, dressed in black, then the girls, dressed in white. Right, this is the procession for Corpus Christi: among a crowd of people, the procession will quit Church's Place and walk along the streets, where people have built some little altars or oratories and decorated their houses with flowers and verdure.
