Great video of Poblet. Many people probably don’t know that many of the Kings of France and England were descendants of King Alfonso II of Aragon who is buried at Poblet. King Edward I of England’s mother Eleanor of Provence was a great granddaughter of Alfonso II. My parents were descended from English aristocrats who settled in Virginia and had documented descent from Edward I so this is my family as well like so many others. I will have to put this monastery on my list to visit. Thanks for sharing this!
