L'abbaye de Noirlac (2)

One of the best things about visiting Noirlac on a Wednesday at this time of year is that there was almost nobody else there. And we were lucky with the weather; it was bright and clear. We had looked a weather forecasts for nearly a week before we set the date for our excursion.


We admired the light streaming in through the windows. We also admired the floors and how they were polished.

Noirlac is about three hours south of Paris if you take the autoroute. It's about half an hour south of the small city of Bourges, where there is a fantastic cathedral to see. Near Noirlac is the château de Meillant, another jewel in the crown of the old Berry province.

  2. So much to see and do in your area. You and Walt should be taking weekly excursions.
    I’m going to London tomorrow but unfortunately my invitation to the coronation still hasn’t arrived.

  3. That wooden structure holding up the vaulted roof is pretty sophistacated.
