The Avranches Scriptorial
: museum on the manuscripts of Mont Saint-Michel. The Scriptorial
presents the precious manuscripts from the abbey of Mont Saint Michel,
entrusted to the town of Avranches since the Revolution. With parchment
coloured walls, light filtering through the openings resembling medieval
loopholes, a gently sloping design climbs up to the high point of the
visit : the Treasure and its manuscripts. The visitor discovers the textures
of the manuscripts, the materials, the colours of the inks and the shapes
used by medieval copyists, the glimmering illuminations and the translations.
Multimedia terminals, documentary films, some surprises, products of high-tech
developments, also await visitors. Temporary exhibitions, seminars and
conferences wil be held regularly at the Scriptorial.
