Chemin de la Touche aux Ânes

Walk through the hedged farmland of Liège on a path marking the passage to the chapel of La Touche aux Ânes.

Saint-Léger-des-Bois was a crossing point on the salt route between Rennes and Angers, and included the important relay station known as "La Touche-aux-Ânes" due to the number of animals stopped at this crossing point.
The house opposite the chapel was the old inn, with donkeys carved above the entrance door and on the chimney.
The chapel was built in 1766 on the site of a bush where, according to local legend, a farmer would find a statuette of a Virgin Mary every day, even though he always took it back to the church.
