discover-the-town-of-elan

Located near Charleville-Mézières and Sedan, the territory of the Country of the Sources on the Valley of Bar will enchant you by many assets that give to the landscape its rich character: forest and water, historic and religious buildings which incite to meditation? The carnival of Flize, the Christmas market and its crib? The gastronomy is with also go, with Ardennes specialities (sugar tart, white roll, honey, cider, chocolate) which will make you feel happy. A rich place for all the family? In 1148, Withier, count of Rethel, ask to the abbot of the Cistercian abbey of Loroy so that an abbey is founded on his land. Withier offers a wide land which extends from Donchery to Omont. Twelve monks are sent under the control of Roger, who will give the name of Esland to the new abbey. Roger chooses a withdrawn small valley, in the middle of a forest of beeches, where several abundant sources run? At that time, the cistercians had already a great control of water. They dug channels, built dams and created falls which made turn the mills and move the hammers. Today, even if the domain was dispersed after the french revolution and partially destroyed at the beginning of the 19th century, it still gives a precise idea of what was the abbey.
