Brief: The Notre-Dame-de-Pitié chapel, dating from 1579, is remarkable for both its late Renaissance architecture and its interior decoration, which was completely rebuilt in 1871-1872 around the sculpted group of the Virgin of Pitié that it houses (a work that was handed over after thefts in 2003). The foundations of this chapel are historically linked to the officers of the Abbey of Fontevraud and to Abbess Éléonore de Bourbon. It should be noted that the renovation of the chapel after the Franco-Prussian War took place in connection with the Central Prison of Fontevraud, since prisoners contributed to the painted decorations. The chapel is isolated and has not been maintained for decades. Today, it is in a worrying state: the striking elements of the sculpted furniture have disappeared or have been stored to prevent theft. The painted canvas has been altered and shows a general shabby-chic style. The murals are in some places very degraded (flaking, holes), as is the vault with false wainscoting on plaster laths. A restoration of this interior and fixing the furniture in place would be necessary. This would undoubtedly also help to clarify the question of the decor that already existed in the 1871-1872 program. Want to know more? Click on https://gertrude.paysdelaloire.fr/dossier/IA49010716

Fontevraud-l'Abbaye is located in the natural region of the Loire Valley, listed as a "living cultural landscape" by UNESCO. As its name suggests, the history and present of the municipality are closely linked to the Abbey of Notre-Dame, founded in 1099. The abbey presents the originality of being part of a mixed order, but led by abbesses until the Revolution. was the necropolis of the Plantagenet dynasty. The recumbent figures of Richard the Lionheart, Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine are still preserved there. The vast abbey complex was transformed by Napoleon I into a penal colony and then into a "central house". This extraordinary prison closed its doors in 1963. While the abbey church and the various monastic sites were rehabilitated, the entire old abbey has since housed a prestigious cultural centre with, among other things, a renowned art museum, welcoming meetings and artists in residence. Art, history and heritage are highlighted throughout the year.

The impressive Romanesque kitchen was built in the 12th century. This building with spectacular architecture is the subject of speculation: funeral chapel, baptistery, smokehouse, hiding place of the legendary highwayman Evrault who robbed travellers. Stand in the middle of the building and look up. Marvel and admire.
