The demonstration will present the fencing techniques and weapons, their handling, the different fences: civil and armor as well as the realities of a fight in the Middle Ages. «L'Ordonnance Saint-Michel 1453» is the name used by the association CREATIF during historical reconstitution events in reference to the great ordinance company and Saint-Michel, patron saint of France and fencers.

À propos du lieu

Abbaye de Maubuisson

Avenue Richard-de-Tour 95310 Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône

Val-d'Oise
Île-de-France

Of this former Cistercian abbey of women (Notre-Dame-La-Royale), founded by Blanche de Castille, remain the barn (building with impressive volume) and part of the square claustral (chapter room, parlor, room of nuns and latrines). The abbey rooms are vaulted with warheads, decorated with stained-glass windows and glazed terracotta green and yellow. The 10-hectare park features archaeological remains and ancient water works. Since 2001, the medieval abbey of Maubuisson is dedicated to the visual and visual arts, connected with the architectural heritage. This redefinition of the abbey as a contemporary art site raises the question of the articulation between architectural heritage and artistic creation.
