The Lourdes High Stations, also known as the Espelugues, offer a powerful climb up the rocky hillside overlooking the Sanctuary.
During my final day in Lourdes, I ventured out alone under the 2:00 PM sun to capture these 115 life-sized bronze figures. Despite the heat, the sheer scale and raw emotion of the artwork were so moving that I knew I had to share this pilgrimage with those who cannot be there in person.
The climb up the Espelugues is more than a walk; it is an encounter. Standing before those massive bronze figures under the afternoon sun, I felt the weight and the glory of the Passion in a way words can barely describe.
This virtual pilgrimage was born from that quiet, hot afternoon in Lourdes—a desire to bring the scale and emotion of these 115 statues to your home.
Did a particular station touch your heart today, or are you carrying a special intention on this virtual climb?
