Situated in a truly beautiful village, this abbey is well worth a visit.
Abbaye Saint-Jean Aux Bois的点评
点评:The abbey is the architectural and historic standout feature in this truly lovely little village, and is located in a lovely, grassy area. Unlike most abbeys and large churches, this one is almost completely bereft of ornamentation, which I find refreshing as I abhor the context of churches spending lavishly in self-adornment.
The abbey here has high plain walls of light coloured stone and is of such size that the plain, dark wood pulpit attached to one of the nave walls seemed decidedly of secondary importance, which is how things should be.
There’s not a huge amount to discover here, but whereas I would normally have marked it as average, the location of the abbey in this lovely village certainly merits another point and certainly deems it well worth a visit.

这里的修道院有高高的浅色石头墙,其尺寸如此之大,以至于连接到中殿墙壁之一的朴素的深色木讲坛似乎绝对是次要的,事情本来应该如此。
这里没有太多值得探索的地方,但虽然我通常会把它标记为一般,但修道院在这个可爱村庄的位置无疑值得另一点,并且肯定认为它非常值得一游。
