Groupe Centre-Val de Loire : Discovering the heritage of Chartres

Guided Tour & Dinner

Hello everyone,

 

I'd like to invite you to our next meeting of ESCP alumni in the Centre-Val de Loire region.

 

After Blois, Orléans and Tours, I propose that we meet again in Chartres.

 

How does the evening unfold?

 

  • Visit Chartres Cathedral by a lecturer specializing in art history

Meet at 6pm on the main square of Chartres Cathedral with Anne Chevée, in front of the Portail Royal (under the 2 towers); tour of the cathedral (presentation of its main features; particularities of its construction, the history of its relics, sculptures and stained glass from the 12th and 13th centuries, Chartres blue).

 

  • Presentation of Florent d'Illiers, bailiff of Chartres and chamberlain to King Charles VII:

We'll then head to Maleyssie, a new venue in Chartres, where we'll have a presentation by Sébastien Pré of Florent d'Illiers (c. 1395-1475), knight, captain of Châteaudun and Nogent-le-Rotrou, bailiff of Chartres, advisor and chamberlain to King Charles VII and Duke Charles d'Orléans. He will present his archival research and document analysis in the context of the second phase of the Hundred Years' War (1415-1453) and the Civil War (1407-1435).

 

  • Dinner in Maleyssie :

We'll then dine at Maleyssie (2 rue de Chanzy, 28000 Chartres). The format will be a cocktail dinner, in this refined new venue for Chartres cuisine.

 

Please confirm your attendance as soon as possible, so that we can organize the event as efficiently as possible.

 

Looking forward to seeing you!

 

Pierre Breysse (MS 18), Delegate of the ESCP Alumni Centre-Val de Loire Group.
