Journées du Patrimoine | Visite-enquête au Prieuré

Take advantage of the European Heritage Days to discover or rediscover the Priory of Saint-Rémy-la-Varenne! Discover the amazing history of the Prieuré de Saint-Rémy-la-Varenne. Built in the 10th century, the monument houses two exceptional objects. Firstly, its monumental Renaissance fireplace, still in pristine condition, tells the story of the Priory’s golden age. Secondly, its 12th-century murals are an astonishing reminder of the religious origins of the estate… Take advantage of guided tour slots in the form of an investigation: a parchment dating from 1540 was recently found at the Priory. The author, Prior Mathurin Legay de la Hamonnière, recounts having had an object built that may still be at the Priory, but whose identity we do not know… Self-guided tour: 10am to 12.30pm and 2pm to 6pm Guided tour: 10.30am – 2.30pm – 4pmVisiting languages:French
