PRIORESS OF CROIXVAL
Go there and contact
A priory with a barn and a house, where Ronsard spent most of the last twenty years of his life.
You can't visit the site, but you can see it as soon as you take the small road that bears its name. This peaceful spot won over the poet Pierre de Ronsard, who loved coming here. He spent the last twenty years of his life here, writing much of his work. He would come to try and cure the gout that plagued him with the plants he liked to grow there. Dismantled during the French Revolution, all that remains of the original 12th-century priory and 15th-century buildings are the barn and farmhouse.
