Role play at the Commandery of the Templars
The Commanderie de La Villedieu was one of the many estates of the Order of the Templars of the West, from the 12th to the beginning of the 14th century. These great monastic foundations were intended to provide the human, financial and logistical means to enable the Order to fight in the Middle East. From this period the chapel and the guards building remain. The farm, sold during the Revolution as a national property, was the largest farm in Elancourt, modernised in the 19th century and operated until 1963, before being transformed into a cultural centre. Come and confront other visitors in a role-playing game that will immerse you in the life of a Templar preceptory in the thirteenth century. Discover the undercurrents of an organization that drained men and money to reclaim the Holy Land
