Aging beauty in the city that inspired Les Miserables
The 10th-century St. Saulve Abbey in the charming medieval city of Montreuil-sur-Mer, France. Read some of my previous posts about this walled city that inspired Victor Hugo's book Les Miserableshere, here, here, here and here.
I enjoyed looking at these photographs because it made me stretch my mind a little bit around the exterior of my aging building being restored. I will look at the brick work, old iron hardware, etc. with new eyes. Thank you.
There is some so beautiful in the aged and worn architecture. Those flowers baskets are gorgeous and I am always a lover of beautiful doors. Thanks for sharing gorgeous photos from your adventures.
Stunning - loved seeing these photos.
