Why would a serpent wear a diamond necklace? This question might seem strange. But here on the slopes of the Salève, local legends weave tales of such curious creatures. One such story speaks of the Oratoire de Notre Dame du Salève. Nestled amidst the breathtaking scenery, the Oratoire de Notre Dame du Salève stands as a beacon of hope and tranquility. Built in 1864, this wayside shrine whispers tales of faith and folklore. Legend says a shepherd once encountered a serpent adorned with a dazzling diamond necklace near the Oratoire de Notre Dame du Salève. He pursued the creature into a deep cave but the serpent vanished. This cave became known as the “Grotte du Diable”, the Devil’s Grotto, a place whispered to hold hidden treasure guarded by the slumbering serpent. The Oratoire de Notre Dame du Salève, however, offers more than just captivating tales. It represents the enduring spirit of faith and the captivating allure of the natural world.
