Anne-Laure Caquineau
A knights hall
In the heart of the abbey, in a large living room, decorated with many columns forming four aisles, is one of the most remarkable pieces of the abbey. Its original name is "scriptorium" and changed to "salle des chevaliers", after the creation of the Ordre des Chevalier by Louis XI in 1469. However, it seems to have never hosted knights, only served as a place of manuscript copy for monks.
