About Abbaye de Cluny:
Abbaye de Cluny, founded in 910 by William the Pious, is a testament to medieval monastic life. Originally the seat of the largest monastic order in Western Europe, it became a national asset in 1798. Visitors can explore sculpted remains in the museum, watch a 3D film to see the abbey in its heyday and walk through the 13th-century Farinier housing the sculpted capitals from the 'Maior Ecclesia' choir. The surviving enclosure wall, towers, and the 18th-century monastic buildings offer a glimpse into its storied past. Located near Mâcon and just an hour from Lyon, Abbaye de Cluny is a captivating journey through history.
