Rocamadour
Since my first visit, Rocamadour is one of my favourite places. In 2009, when I followed the Via Podensis, I took a detour, to reach Rocamadour by foot, like so many pilgrims since medieval times.
Rocamadour attracted pilgrims over centuries and has a legend, similar to that of Santiago de Compostella . Here in 1166 the grave of St. Veronica´s husband Zacchaeus the Tax Collector (Luke 19) was found. He had moved from Jerusalem to this place in Gaul / France in his older age and lived here as a hermit under the name of Amadour.
The best time to "feel" Rocamadour is the evening, when the many day tourists (more than a million per year) are already on their way home and the night falls in.
