SENNECEY HERITAGES

 

Hermitage

A hermitage is a place where a hermit lives in isolation, usually for religious retreat. The main purpose of a hermitage is for solitary spiritual life. A hermitage has key characteristics like:
- It is in a remote and quiet location.
- It has a simple architectural style.
- It is associated with prayer, solitude and religious life.
- Sometimes it has a small chapel attached.
 

At least one hermitage is confirmed in Sennecey-le-Grand i.e. the Ermitage Saint-Claude.
 

 

Saint-Claude Hermitage - Before

Owned by the municipality of Sennecey-le-Grand and abandoned for many years, the hermitage has gradually fallen into ruin. Its location beside a road makes it particularly dangerous.

The project involves clearing and then restoring the building. It is designed to evolve based on the excavations and potential discoveries made over time.
