20의 생 뱅상 데 프레가지 명소 & 주요 장소

화해 교회는 타이제 공동체의 영적 중심지입니다. 내부 장식이 없는 단순하고 넓은 건물로, 의도적으로 모든 화려함을 배제했습니다.

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!

On Fridays there is a small market behind the church with delicious local produce from the region.

The old village church of Taizé, small and simple. This is where Brother Roger founded the famous Taizé community. His idea of reconciliation quickly found great international resonance, so that the much larger Church of Reconciliation was built further up. Brother Roger has been buried here since his murder in 2005.

An extraordinary vestige of the Middle Ages. The church of Saint-Hippolyte was one of the oldest fortified churches in Burgundy. It was classified as a "Historic Monument" of France in 1913. Its history and legend are palpable when you are inside the ruins.

The ruins of the Romanesque church. On September 10, 1913, the church was classified as a Historic Monument, thanks to the intervention of archaeologist Jean Virey; in 1927, the Historical Monuments consolidated its bell tower which threatened to fall. Then, the work of destruction resumes, the church being invaded by vegetation. In 2003, the commune of Bonnay became the owner of the church by buying it from an individual, for a symbolic euro.

The patronage of this place of worship “Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption” refers to one of the many memorial or festival days in honor of Mary, Mother of God. This goes back to the festival of her physical assumption into heaven. The (Catholic) Church celebrates this festival annually on August 15th. In the Orthodox churches the feast is called the Dormition of the Virgin Mary. In rural areas of Germany with a predominantly Catholic population, it used to be customary for bundles of herbs to be collected by the population on this special day and blessed in a festive service. This old custom has occasionally survived to this day.

It is part of the self-image of the TAIZE community/brotherhood that people also work for a living. This monastery shop sells handicraft products, books and CDs with the popular songs from Taize.
