Guided Tour at Fontenay Abbey (Bernard de Clairveau), Montbard - From Lyon to Paris: Total Immersion in Burgundy and Champagne 2023 by ombiasy WineTours




From Lyon to Paris: Total Immersion in Burgundy and Champagne 2023 by ombiasy WineTours took place from Sunday, July 02 - Thursday, July 13, 2023. The tour started in Lyon and ended in Paris.

Today we said goodbye to the Burgundy wine region and crossed into the Champagne region.

Before leaving Burgundy, we visited the Fontenay Abbey.

Guided tour at Fontenay Abbey (Bernard de Clairveau), Montbard

Fontenay Abbey in Burgundy was founded in 1118 by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, a leading French saint, who was instrumental in placing the seeds for winemaking in all of Europe. It is the oldest preserved Cistercian abbey in the world. Recognized as French historic monument in 1862, it was declared world heritage site by UNESCO in 1981. Luckily the abbey was not destroyed during and after the French revolution. 

All the buildings of the Romanesque period: the Abbey Church, the Dormitory, Cloister, Chapter Room, the Common Room, and the Forge are preserved. Still today we can admire the beauty and purity of architecture unspoiled for 900 years, and can enjoy the quiet of a place designed for spirituality. Here you can also see some wine making equipment used centuries ago by the monks.
