THE MEDIEVAL GARDEN
Go there and contact
Located behind the heritage house, it follows the plan of a cloister garden and as it represents paradise. Its square form represents the land, the four plots, the seasons, themselves divided into nine squares (divisible by three in reference to the Trinity). This very precise architecture is typical of the Middle Ages, it follows calculations of symmetry very developed to achieve the perfect balance. The plants present here are cited in the chapter of Charlemagne. They let us know how we cared and we were feeding at that time. The monks used, among others, to provide care to the pilgrims of Santiago de Compostela and to feed themselves. The vegetable garden was essential to the life of the community. In all these are 23 different varieties of plants that can be observed. Today, next to the garden, has been set up a space for rest and meditation with a seat (also carried out according to medieval plans) surmounted by a portico where climbing rose rose.
