Abbaye de Fontenay
|
|
Picture of the immense church
Since Fontenay is (was) a cysterciencer abbey, there was no decoration. Everything was meant to be sober. Just that makes it so impressive.
This is one of the best preserved cysterciencer abbeyes in the world and on the list of World Heritage.

Le lit de de marquise (2)
|
|
The marquis was 35 when he married, the marquise 13. The marquise became a widow when she was 22 years old, because her husband died in the war. Although they had seperate appartments, there were 4 children when the marquise was widowed.
