Monument, Religious Sight

The Catholic temple, the patron saint of Mauritius, Pere Laval, is open to representatives of all religions. This is a great place to visit and learn about the history of the island. The temple building has recently been expanded and restored, the walls are decorated with mosaics, and looks quite modern. The temple contains a glass sarcophagus with a wax copy of the body of Father Laval, whose work is outstanding. He is famous for his miracles, especially the healing of seriously ill people. The church contains a lot of information about the work of Father Laval and the visit of the Pope.
