The Abbey of Clairvaux, created by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in 1115 is about to be put up for sale by the French State.
The abbey was closed down during the French Revolution, bought by the State in 1808, and used as a prison since.
This was the first Abbey of the Cistercian Order. It produced 80 daughter abbeys and 343 granddaughters. throughout Europe.
Now the French State wants to get rid of it, possibly transforming the building into a privately owned luxury hotel for the rich.
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
