ジャグニーのおすすめランニングルート

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！

The town of Cluny was based on the Benedictine monastery (Cluniac Abbey), founded in 910. The abbey was the starting point and center of the Cluniac reform at the beginning of the 10th century. Cluny reached its peak membership at the beginning of the 12th century with approximately 400 monks. The last abbey church (Cluniac 3) was the world's largest Romanesque basilica and, until the construction of today's St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, the largest church in Christendom. The church had seven towers. Although large parts of the building were destroyed, the remaining relics are absolutely remarkable and make a visit to Cluny an unforgettable experience!

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.

Attractive church to visit

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.
