  3. L'abbaye de Jedburgh a de beaux restes aussi. En plus, il y avait une chasse aux Legos pour les enfants (la deuxième du séjour - la première c'était au musée de l'armée au château de Stirling). Résultat, on a pu les voir faire deux ou trois fois le tour de l'abbaye alors qu'au départ, ils traînaient des pieds 😬

  5. Petite ambiance médiévale avec la visite du château de Doune qu'on peut voir dans Sacré Graal, Game of Thrones et Outlander. C'était chouette comme visite, sachant que l'audioguide est raconté par les acteurs avec des anecdotes de tournage en plus.
    Bon, et on a fait la chasse aux latrines aussi 🙈

    A scene from the Pied Piper by Julius Wolff.

    I love the dark alleyway on our right, with the façades of houses dimly visible in the shadows. Great work for an engraving!

    Art by Paul Thumann (1834 – 1908).

    The mosque at Córdova (or Córdoba now) was made using (the magazine claims) recycled materials, including pillars from temples at Carthage and elsewhere in Africa and in France and Spain.

    The artist and engraver are not identified.

    This alms-house (low-income public housing they might say today?) was originally a chapel in Warwick, built in 1126 CE. It was used by trade guilds and then became an alms-house in 1571. It is still an alms-house today, almost 500 years later.

    It's also open to the public.
