ABBEYS IN THE HEART OF THE VALLEYS

The most important places of Christianity

An episode from the series STORY OF FAITH

Synopsis

The Massif Central is a wild and steep territory that shares a thousand-year-old relationship with its abbeys.

Whether with the construction of a canal with bare hands in the Middle Ages, a mysterious episode during the Second World War, or the transformation of a village in the 1970s, the monks and nuns have, over the centuries, sculpted the landscapes, diverted the riverbeds, drained the marshes and, above all, left an indelible mark on the cultural and architectural heritage of this region.
