Along the coast of Réunion

La Vierge au Parasol

La Vierge au Parasol, dating from the early 20th century, when Monsieur Leroux, owner of Bois-Blanc in Sainte-Rose, placed the statue in his fields to protect his crops. One day, a lava flow crossed his land and burned his fields, but the statue miraculously remained in place, spared by the lava.
