Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer
29.09.2023
This pretty town located by the sea, is quite touristic and small. Nevertheless i think its worth a visit and there's some Magic in the Air, i think.
The legend says, that Mary, Mother of Jesus, arrived at this beach with two other Marys and her Servant Sarah. Sarah died here and her remains lie in a crypt in the church on the main square. She is revered as a saint by the Sinti and Roma from all over Europe and her Bones and Statue is carried to the sea once a year by the community.
Visit the tomb of Sarah, enjoy the Beach, which is epic, like everywhere here. Have some Moules et frites and stroll through the almost Andalusian like little Alleys.
Why the town is called after all the Marys and not famous Sarah - good question, no answer here. They got the name, Sarah all the fame though.
Where to stay
Wonderful luxury place, close to the seaside and with a wonderful garden and pool.
