A twelfth-century basilica, a jewel of Romanesque art whose nave (narthex), large portals and façade have just been restored. The basilica at Vézelay is one of the Romanesque churches with the most historiated capitals in the world. The sunlight plays with the building. At the summer solstice, a path of light leads pilgrims from John the Baptist to the Conquering Lamb, the Christ of Light evoked in the choir.
