The frescoes in the monks' chapel
Created by the abbot of Cluny, Hugues de Semur, and isolated from the intense life of the abbey of Cluny, the priory of Berzé-la-Ville received distinguished guests... Its decorations are a masterpiece of 12th-century mural painting and the only surviving examples of Cluniac monumental painting!
