Description
Were you aware of the legendary beneficial effects of the water contained in the Sainte-Renelde Well? Even though it blends in with the surrounding landscape of du Roman Païs, its resources are far from being insignificant! In the green countryside around Saintes, approximately 800 metres from the village church, is the Sainte-Renelde Well, the water from which is reputed to be miraculous in curing diseases of the skin and eyes.
The Gothic coping is protected by enclosing walls going back to the 16th century, with a cast iron structure surmounted by the statue of the saint (19th century). Thanks to its therapeutic reputation, this fountain is still a very popular centre of pilgrimage.
