GALA DINNER

Gala Dinner – Abbaye de Royaumont Thursday, July 4  18:00 - 23:00

The Gala Dinner will take place on July 4 (day 2) at the Royaumont Abbeye, that was built by Saint Louis between 1228 and 1235 under the oversight of his mother, Blanche de Castille. The abbey’s isolated location, simple layout and unadorned buildings bespeak its origins as a Cistercian monastery. Remaining closely associated with the monarchy until the French Revolution (Cardinal Mazarin became its abbot in 1645 and the abbey was given to the House of Lorraine between 1651 and 1728), Royaumont was host to intellectuals and artists from its inception. The Abbey is today the best-preserved Cistercian abbey in the Île-de-France region.
