Pontlevoy Abbey
Pontlevoy Abbey is a former Benedictine abbey located in the town of Pontlevoy in the Loir-et-Cher department of France. History It was founded in fulfillment of a vow in 1034 by Gueldouin or Gelduin de Chaumont, a local knight. It is believed that Gelduin's boat was caught in a storm on the way back from a Crusade in the Holy Land. He prayed to the Virgin for help, promising to build Her a church in Pontlevoy, which he held as a vassal of the Count of Blois. Allegedly, the Virgin dressed in white, appeared above the rolling deck and calmed the sea. Gelduin endowed the abbey with enough revenue for Benedictine monks to build a huge church, dedicated to the White Virgin. From the east, it looks like a complete Gothic cathedral with flying buttresses and trefoil stone tracery in the windows of the radiating chapels. There is a gravel courtyard where the nave should be. The monks treated the sick and educated children. The church was almost completely destroyed during the Hundred Ye ...
