This event is represented, in the church, in a stained glass window of the 19th century and on a table of the 17th century. The church of St-Hilaire-la-Grande of Poitiers preserves three stone statues (the Virgin with the Child, Saint Hilary and Saint Radegunda) which formerly decorated the gate of the moat, the place of the miracle.
Documentation of an oratory at the site exists as early as 1072. Pilgrims would have passed by this site on the road to Rome. By the 14th century the oratory was enlarged and transformed into a church dedicated to Saint Hilary, a bishop of Poitiers who died in the fourth century.
