Grotte Notre-Dame de Lourdes, Religious grotto in Jette, Belgium

The Grotte Notre-Dame de Lourdes features a marble altar decorated with Belgian coat of arms and includes a chapel with biblical stained glass windows.

The grotto was established in 1915 during World War I when Cardinal Mercier requested Father Swalus to construct it next to the Notre-Dame de Lourdes chapel.

The site contains fourteen Stations of the Cross, fifteen worship stations, and multiple religious statues distributed throughout the prayer garden and woodland paths.

The religious domain remains open for visits from 9 AM to 4 PM on weekdays, with parking available in a designated blue zone near the entrance.

A six-meter-high bronze Christ sculpture by Marcel Rau stands above the grotto, positioned on top of the artificial rock formation.
