Diocese of Belfort–Montbéliard

Students from the democratic school of Belfort visited several religious sites over two days to study different faiths as part of their history curriculum. The group visited Saint Christophe Cathedral, a mosque, Saint Jean Temple, and a synagogue.

History and geography teacher Virginie Larcher said the project was designed to make the study of religion more concrete by allowing students to meet the people who maintain these sites. The school organized the visits through the association AGIRE and in collaboration with the leaders of each religious site.

Primary and middle school students observed traditions, practices, and heritage through listening and asking questions. The school reported that the students shared their reactions to the visits on the school's Instagram page.
