On September 8, 1643, the municipal councillors promised to pay tribute to Mary if the town was spared. Ever since, a solemn procession makes its way to the Basilica of Fourvière on 8 of December  to light candles and give offerings in the name of Mary. In part, the event thus commemorates the day Lyon was consecrated to the Virgin Mary. hectorg678 https://padlet.com/hectorg678/ipx88rlpcf07/wish/134184960 2016-10-31 12:09:24 UTC https://padlet.com/hectorg678/ipx88rlpcf07/wish/134184960
