According to legend, at the beginning of the 8th century, the Archangel Michael appeared to the bishop Aubert in a dream and instructed him to build a sanctuary on the rocky, inhospitable island in his honour. Understandably, it took two more alleged apparitions before the great bishop was convinced to go along with such a project.
