クリュニーの町は、910年に設立されたベネディクト会修道院（クリュニー修道院）に隣接して発展しました。この修道院は、10世紀初頭のクリュニー改革の発祥地であり中心地でした。クリュニーは、12世紀初頭に約400人の修道士を擁して最盛期を迎えました。 最後の修道院教会（クリュニー3）は、世界最大のロマネスク様式のバシリカであり、現在のローマのサン・ピエトロ大聖堂が建設されるまで、キリスト教世界最大の教会でした。この教会には7つの塔がありました。 建造物の大部分は破壊されましたが、残された遺構は絶対に注目に値するものであり、クリュニーへの訪問を忘れられない体験にしてくれます！

Saint CECILE, to whom this church in the town of the same name was dedicated, is primarily responsible for good sound in the large circle of saints - if one can put it so casually here - because she is the patron saint of church music. Many religious choirs are named after her. The dates of her life from the corresponding saint's legend are not historically confirmed, but she is said to be a martyr from the beginning of the third century. The patron saint's feast day, i.e. her memorial day in the calendar of saints, is on November 22nd in all major Christian denominations.

Founded in 910, Cluny Abbey was a powerful centre of the Benedictine order and influenced the spiritual and cultural life of all of Europe at its height. Today, although much of the abbey was destroyed during the French Revolution, you can still explore the remaining parts of the vast complex, including the majestic bell tower and restored cloister.

And another church to wander by

Main reason for visiting Cluny - but well worth the time.

Cluny Abbey was at its time the largest Romanesque church in the world. The parts that remain today following its dismantling remain impressive, notably its immense tower. The Cluny City Museum of Art and Archeology adjoins the main entrance to the church ruins.

The city of Cluny owes its development to the influence of Cluny Abbey which was the most powerful abbey in medieval Christianity. The result is the survival of an exceptional heritage, much of it inherited from the medieval period. Thus, the streets of the city offer the spectacle of medieval houses, the concentration of which is remarkable. The national stud farm and the art and archeology museum complete the city's cultural and sporting offerings.

It was built in the 15th century after the destruction of a first castle on the orders of the King of France, who belonged to the Mâcon region, and who was fighting against the Duke of Burgundy. Located on the hillside, between two hamlets, it is a castle whose buildings are grouped together and form a quadrilateral around a central courtyard. The entrance is framed by two round towers pierced by archers, and was formerly equipped with a drawbridge. It will serve as a hotel, the guest rooms are almost finished.
