François Vasey We carried out four activities with a group over two days with the support of an excellent guide from the visitor's house: a pilgrim's walk to approach the hill, a simulation of the basilica at the Visitor's House, a guided tour of the basilica and finally a capitals workshop.
The result is beyond our expectations, through the quality and personalization of the support, the adapted rhythm of the visits and the historical and spiritual depth of the message delivered. In such a place, an accompaniment of this quality multiplies the benefit of the trip. Well done and thank you!
Anne, Brittany The film "The Dance of the New Adam" made me travel in time and space as close to the work of the artists of the Romanesque art. With what fervor do they still speak to men of the XXI century!
The details of the sculptures, the arrangement of forms and representations of humanity superbly filmed, the text, the music touched my senses and my heart.
At the deepest. The emotion is at the rendezvous! Magnificent ! Thank you !
