medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Thank you Genevra!
My husband and I spent a couple of nights across the border in Tournai
in November, and spent a day and a night in Lille afterwards. The
sunlight through the west facade of Notre Dame de la Treille was most
striking. We must go back and visit the Hospice some time.
