After the end of the Second World War in 1945, the city of Amersfoort expanded to the south. The former Grachtkerk in the city centre was increasingly located further away from the new construction. The need for church space in the south (the Berg- and Leusderkwartier) became increasingly greater.
Montbard, FR
Fontenay is often taken as an example to illustrate the typical plan of the Cistercian Abbey. This is no doubt due to the exceptional state of conservation of the Abbey, but also because of its early date of construction and its architectural homogeneity. Today we can think that Fontenay was one of the models used to define the Cistercian plan which was later taken up by many abbeys of the order.
Narbonne, FR
The Cistercian Abbey of Sainte-Marie de Fontfroide dates back to the 11th century. The monastery became a key centre in the fight against Cathar doctrine, and Pope Innocent III appointed two legates chosen from among the abbey's members to defend Catholic orthodoxy against heresy.
