The rencontres de Preuilly

The Rencontres de Preuilly take place on the last weekend of September and span three days: one day for children, one festive day with a lecture and concert, and one day of reflection.

Friday is reserved for schoolchildren from neighboring towns. Since 2018, the visit and workshops have been organized by Mrs. Nadine Villiers, Mayor of Gurcy, in collaboration with teachers from nearby municipalities.

Saturday is a day of celebration. The site is open for free visits throughout the day and features a lecture in the afternoon, followed by a concert in the early evening.

Sunday is a day of reflection, dedicated to the traditional pilgrimage and concluded with a solemn mass, traditionally celebrated by the Bishop of Meaux in the ruins of the abbey… or in one of the Preuilly barns if September skies turn rainy!
