Geographical setting
La route magique is a natural curiosity: The road gives the impression of leading uphill, although it actually runs downhill – or vice versa. It is located after Les Noës, between the D42 and the hamlet of Les Robins, on a 300 m stretch.
Culture
The Oratoire des Noës is a granite oratory erected in 1888 by residents of Les Noës, featuring an image of Jean-Marie Vianney, later known as the Curé d’Ars. Jean-Marie Vianney stayed in Les Noës in 1810–1811; as a result, the village acquired a special place in the veneration of the saint.
On the first Sundays in August, Les Noës commemorates the Curé d’Ars at the Oratoire des Noës and at the statue at the entrance to the village from the direction of Renaison. Marymbe, an important hamlet on the ridge of the Rouchain Valley, was the starting point of the great pilgrimage route to La Madeleine.
