St. Bernard of Clairvaux

Every year on August 20th the Church honors the memory and witness of St. Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153), abbot and Doctor of the Church. He was a beacon of spiritual light that illuminated France and all of western Europe during the XII century. It was St. Bernard who gave impetus to the strong devotion to Our Lady that flourished in the later Middle Ages.

Our Patron

  • St. Bernard of Clairvaux (1090–1153AD) was a French Cistercian Abbot, reformer, preacher, mystic, miracle worker, and reconciler of heretics. He is known as the Mellifluous Doctor and is one of the last Church Fathers.

  • Omnia Per Mariam (“All through Mary”)

  • August 20

Prayer is a wine which makes glad the heart of man
— St. Bernard of Clairvaux

The Legacy of St. Bernard Parish

SINCE 1847

Our Story

  • Breaux Bridge, Louisiana’s first Catholic chapel is constructed

  • St. Bernard Parish is established

  • The first substantial church building was erected

  • Today’s current church building was erected under the administration of Rev. P.A. Borel.

    The exterior bricks, original to the church, were made at a local factory in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.

    The twin steeples and fine French Romaneque architectural lines make it a truly unique historical landmark.

  • St. Bernard Parish celebrates its 175th Anniversary and undergoes renovations to preserve the historical church building

  • "Jesus alone is honey in the mouth, song to the ear, jubilation in the heart."
