Major Roman Catholic pilgrimage destination in southern France (7)

I believe the answer is:

lourdes

(Other definitions for lourdes that I've seen before include "French town, destination of RC pilgrimage" , "It offers hope to the sick" , "Shrine in SW France" , "location of miracles" , "Lured so to revered shrine in south of France" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
