🕯️ The history of the Festival of Lights

🕯️ The Festival of Lights, traditionally called the Festival of December 8 or Illuminations, is an event that takes place annually in Lyon.
✨ Originally, this celebration had a religious significance, marking the homage of the Lyonnais to the Virgin Mary, who, according to belief, saved the city from the plague in 1643. Over time, the event evolved to become a great celebration that combines both respect for tradition and a festival of light projections. Discover in this audio, the history of this festival dear to the hearts of the Lyonnais and its transformation over time.
