Bartrès

Bartrès (French pronunciation: [baʁtʁɛs]; Occitan: Bartrés) is a commune in the Hautes-Pyrénées department in southwestern France.

[3] The village is famous for its association with St. Bernadette Soubirous.

St. Bernadette was sent there in her infancy to a wet nurse, and again in her early teens to work for the same lady as a shepherdess.

Today, the village is visited by numerous pilgrims who come to pray at the village church and venerate a relic of the saint.
