The priory of saint Cosme is more known as house of Ronsard, who(which) was the prior from 1565 till 1585 and whose house is kept(preserved) where he lived. The poet, died in these places, is buried in the old(former) church.Les new gardens are the fruit of a contemporary creation which suggests to the public rediscovering the priory in its original environmental context – that of an island of the Loire – and offers it a visit alloying enjoyment(approval) with the active discovery of 12 spaces-gardens handled as so much themes.
