On Fridays in December and January, the historic monument is revealed in the glow of lanterns through two guided tours. A poetic stroll follows in the footsteps of the Cluniac monks, while a theatrical and humorous journey takes you along the traces of Queen Berthe. An original way to discover over a thousand years of history, whether with family or fellow heritage enthusiasts.
