Everything about The Manoir De Brion totally explained

The Manoir de Brion, also known as the Château de Brion, is an ancient Benedictine priory of the abbey of Mont Saint-Michel. It is located near the village of Genêts in Avranches, Basse-Normandie, and was founded in 1137 by the Christian mystic Saint Bernard of Clairvaux. Several kings and members of the royal court stayed at the Manoir de Brion while on pilgrimage to Mont Saint-Michel, including Charles VI in 1393, Louis XI in 1462 and François I in 1532. The explorer Jacques Cartier was also presented to King François I at the Manoir de Brion before his 1534 voyage to Canada, where one of the Magdalen Islands would be named Île Brion. The English writer Vincent Cronin currently resides there with his wife Chantal.
