Itinerary

On this walking tour, I’ll share with you the early history and development of the village, from just a few dwellings around the Abbey to one of the spiritual centres of Europe. We’ll explore houses from several chapters in history, where I’ll point out the details hidden in the facades, and tease out the stories of former inhabitants.
