In Paris we visit Rue de Bac - the Shrine of the Miraculous Medal. Rue de Bac is also home to the headquarters of the Daughters of Charity, co-founded by St. Louise & St. Vincent de Paul. It was here that Our Lady appeared to Sr. Catherine Laboure on the night of July 18th 1830, where she instructed Catherine on the design of the Miraculous Medal. The body of St Vincent de Paul can be seen nearby in Rue de Sevres. He died on September 27th 1660 and was canonised by Pope Clement on June 16th 1737.
The Paris section of the Shrines of France Tour includes a delightful sightseeing tour of a range of Parisian attractions including the Eiffel Tower, L’Arc de Triomphe, the Champs Elysées, the Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral and others. We also offer an optional evening cruise on the River Seine. .
