"La Fontaine de la Vierge est située dans le cimetière. Elle est sans doute de la même époque que le premier sanctuaire, mais le mur extérieur date de 1718. Elle est dite « Fontaine des Nourrices » ou « Feunteun AlLaez » (fontaine du lait).

Les futures mères et les nourrices venaient y demander santé et abondance de lait pour les nourrissons." (visit link)
