The abbey of Saint-Michel de Cuxa is a Benedictine monastery located at the foot of Canigou. It is founded in the Xth century.
The abbey church is partly pre-Romanesque and its cloister marks in the twelfth century the birth of Roussillois Romanesque sculpture. (infos wikipedia)

Cette superbe perspective en angle magnifie les superbes chapiteaux sculptés, et la lumière est très belle pour le relief.......magnifique prise de vue, Jean-Claude !

bien vu
Muito bonito meu amigo, obrigado por compartilhar, aplausos (5)
Merci de nous faire partager ce lieu charismatique !!
The light you captured is lovely, Jean. I could use a place like this for some R&R...
Beautiful capture!
Avec ton commentaire , c'est un vrai document photographique Un album photos comportant photos et textes sur les églises et abbayes de ton coin de pays (et d'ailleurs) serait surement intéressant (curieux de voir ce qu'aurait donné cette photo en noir et blanc)
Very fine photo of this old structure! Very well captured! Bravo!
Great capture! Love it!
Perfect catch, Jean!
I wonder how long it took to build that? It's a shame we seem to have lost the dedication and patience to build things like this now. I doubt there will be anything left of the 21st century a thousand years from now.
Beautiful Architecture , interesting shot !!
Great view of these medieval columns and great workmanship to have lasted for centuries!!! Great capture my friend!
Very beautiful photo.
Lovely photo.
j'aime beaucoup ces arcades et cette architecture. Jolie prise de vue
Ces chapiteaux sculptés sont magnifiques ! Excellente vue en perspective sur les colonnades du cloître !
Beautiful architecture for that era in time. The workmanship was amazing considering the tools they had to work with. Thank you for sharing this wonderful photo!
Beautiful
Wonderful arcade. This monastery has existed for so long. In awe I look at this Romanesque building. Fabulous photo, Jean-Claude.
surement des secrets dans la crypte heheheheh.
Nice play of light and shadow in this photo. It appears to be a very serene setting. Excellent capture, Jean-Claude!
Ces pierres agencées et façonnées de la main de l'homme, ont à elles-seules une histoire et sont un témoignage qui ne change pas avec le temps qui passe. Une magnifique photo, techniquement parfaite, Jean-Claude !
very ornate stone work
Wow un autre ouvrage qui a résisté au temps. Superbe!
