This cathedral is not really one, but rather a huge room with concretions and draperies that look like church pillars or organ pipes… Not to mention an exceptional stalactite that rises under the vault and looks like a statue of the Virgin and Child.

So the managers of the Grotte des Demoiselles, in Saint-Bauzille-de-Putois, are offering two exceptional moments in this cathedral-like room. First, a Christmas concert, this Saturday, December 21 at 6 p.m., will feature a performance by the Ensemble vocal et instrumental de Montpellier, which will perform Christmas carols and opera choirs. Traditional songs from Europe and the world and arias by Bizet, Gounod, Mozart and Verdi are on the program. Soprano Cécile Bidi is expected as well as violinist Dorothée Fontcouberte. The concert will last 1 hour 15 minutes, it is advisable to dress well and bring your small cushion.

Tuesday, December 24, mass will be celebrated at 4 p.m., it will last 1 hour 30 minutes and you should arrive between 3:15 p.m. and 3:50 p.m., via the funicular.
