Mont-Saint-Michel | The French Village That Sits Right In The Ocean
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 жов 2021
- Mont-Saint-Michel is one of France’s the most visited sites. The unique building on the cliffs above the Atlantic serves as a kind of national shrine for the French. The famous abbey - perched atop 92-meter rock faces - has an eventful history, and even back in the Middle Ages was a destination for pilgrims and artists. It is today visited by over two million people every year. For European Heritage Day - celebrated on 19 September 2021 - DJ Michaël Canitrot set the old walls of the World Heritage Site buzzing for the night, with electronic beats and lighting effects.

one of the most amazing historical site on earth, and you send a DJ and turn it into a club
Well, the logic is that it will bring through some younger folk...
my thoughts exactly...pretty sad to bring techno to such a place...as if older Gen's are goon to start rubbing Vick's on their chests and pop pills
Thanks for pointing that out. It doesn’t fit in with that amazing, historic place. Would love to see it someday - without the light show.
times change man you sound like a grumpy grandpa
@@dweuromaxx i just turned 25, this doesn't work. Anglicanism and evangelicalism is dying for a reason.
Wow, jealous of Francois Saint-Jean, working there and LIVING there for years. whooooooa
By a clear night, the illuminated cloister of the abbey looks like a ship floating in the sky. Absolutely stunning!
I was there a week ago! Absolutely loved it. If you go, make sure to walk around outside for the best views and around
What mode did you take ? Private tour , car , bus train ? I’m planning to go for a day trip from Paris is possible.
@@Mkaela90 I went on a guided tour from Paris. I used trip advisor to book. Look there and search for mont st michel tours.
What month did you go? How was the weather? I might go in mid-November this year.
@@shaunbokhari September. Was very nice visiting I didnt need a jacket. Weather is overall fine all year
❤❤Ich war dort. Es ist daa Eindrucksvollste was ich bis jetzt gesehen habe.❤❤❤❤Win absolut gigantischer Ort.
I loved my visit there! Such a surreal, and beautiful place!
Do you have any travel tips for us?
I went at the church for christmas ceremony as a kid 3 or 3 times and after the curé would give us soup . it was my beautifullest christmas .
Truely stunning. Would love to visit one day.
This place looks like the opening credit of Disney movie. Gorgeous.
It is actually!
Fun fact : the family of the creator of disney came from normandy
Was there 2 times
Want to go again
I love the middle ages grand café
Here painters and poets meet
Its magical
Going for third time
Looking so forward
That's why France get most tourists other than any nation on planet ❤
Not true!
We just love ❤️ virtual tourism. It’s funding well spent for historians to share documentaries digitally with the international community ❤
It has a twin, Mount St Michael. Just off the coast of Cornwall in SE England. Straight across the channel.
When I saw it.. Minis Tirith came in mind..
pretty sure it was the inspiration, or at the very least part of it.
Reminds me of the castle in Disney’s movie Tangled
I was exploring google earth and just found it. Damn this is beautiful!
Wow beautiful, ❤i would like to visit this place someday 😍
Incredible what faith can make. I am a proud Christian and when I see these miracles of architecture made by the church I think: No wonder why our faith and culture is so hardly attacked. This DJ is one of the most smart young person Out there. He is just lovely 💝🔔🎧
God bless you
nah its just christianity fails as a set of ideas when you strat to critisize it.
Just look at the Ancient Indian Architecture of Hindus ,not the Islamists,I bet you will be greatly humbled.All of these western monuments have drawn great inspiration from those at India.
@@daxtroxlifox8962 cathedrals are better and I'm Indian
Christians took over these magnificent buildings and repurposed them for their religious needs. These were built by a previous, pre-Christian civilisation.
A must see, merci beaucoup.
The gaudy light show is embarrassingly out of place among this beautiful abbey
Dat DJ guys is surely wearing the coolest outfit I’ve ever seen.
Awesome! Love it!!
When they made the model of Minas Tirith, they used this as a reference.
Wow what a video! I love the editing and music
Thanks!
Wow this is lovely 💕
Wow it's Amazing 🤩
So cool. Keys look like the ones in the movies 😅🔥
I really would like to visit this site one day!
Hope you can make it out there too :)
Like a fairy tale...amazing ..
No chain made by mortals can hold back that man.
I had a 3d foam puzzle of it when i was young but was pissed off that it only was one half of the Mont
LOVELY
im convinced that this is Minas Tirith
fans of locksport or the lockpicking lawyer feel for that man who feels so special for having so many keys, he is such a sweet summer child. not even those keys are safe from lockpicking.
St.mikael this is holly place???
I'm not sure in it, but I think that the first (at least on a big scale) musician who did a concert there was Jean-Michel Jarre in 1993. So, it's not a new thing here at all...
Persians love techno.
I wonder If Tolkien and JK Rolling ever went there...
Authors are always taking inspirations. Look up "water 7" from One Piece
Genuinely can't believe they had a light show in such a stunningly beatiful Abbey.
Incredibly disrespectful and demanding. Don't understand how in anyway its going to attract young people who if they do go,will go for the show not the church. Let the church be a church and a nightclub be a nightclub. Have a little bit of respect and know the place of things and keep what is good.
Next thing we'll have discos in church's.
I know this place, Minas Tirith
I wonder how they make it they is no house around
Real Life Minas Tirith
I wonder what something like that would cost to build today?
Why am I getting a King's Landing vibe here?
I don't think the monks and village like being disturbed 😯😳 in such dizzying atmosphere
if youd listened properly, you'd know no one lives in the village 💀
Minas Tirith in real life
nice place, but dude banging dance tunes in such a place is to me so ridiculous tho
I think strike witches used to be there.
So disrespectful to have DJ cheap lights music. This is a heritage place! Not a Discotheque!
A place where a king or rich family had enough people who believed in them they dedicated their lives to living and working together. Strange.
I know this place because of onimusha 3 . Anyone else too??
“Mien”🎬
7:48.... "doesn't need Added entertainment" neither did any of us.....
Am I the only one thinks this looks like the castle in the sky by studio ghibli?
i wanna be high asf when i watch the lightshow
Why did you call him mihail? Say mitchel withou the itch, its basically mishel
How do people get to live here
Village?
Kinda resembles dalaran from wow
Let’s get gojira here
Wow! .. that castle remains me scenes from the Harry Potter movie!
It’s not a castle. It’s an abbaye.
Boys in France play with Castle replicas?😅
wasted chance to send RDJ there to perform the greatest song of all time
Isn't it sacrilegious to have such a light show projected on the abbey? It should be something that honors God, the traditions & the culture it was built for...
Stop calling the Channel or the North Sea, or the Mediterranean "the Ocean". they aren't.
Shalour city gym
Nobody is allowed to live there?
This is a near duplicate of the smaller original St. Michael’s Mount in Cornwall! Near Marazion? It’s a beautiful well polished jewel.
Unfortunately it was ransacked by the ‘King of the Franks’ before this island was named of Mont-Saint-Michel in Normandy. The treasures were never returned.
You're absolutely right! There is a similar, perhaps less grandiose, St Michael's Mount in Cornwall, southwest England. Both are open for visitors.
Didn't know about the ransacking though - thanks for the piece of history🤓
@@dweuromaxx no, he's wrong. Mont Saint Michel is the original one, the english one is a small copy. It was the bishop of Mont Saint Michel who created the english version and give it the same name, after Normans's conquest of England.
It's funny how english brain-washing is efficient, they thinks it's the opposite, but they're wrong.
Beautiful little shady nook pity about the tide, Strewth
Looks cool do they have decent restrooms? I poop a lot out of my butt
Way to trash it up with a dj.
When i win the lottery i think I'll buy it. Live there as a benevolent dictator. Can an estate agent please contact me
This is the doofania blueprint
Visit by all means but don't dawdle that tide mon deau
Who will come after watching the package kdrma
minas tirit
It reminds me Lord of da rings
Gives me Attack On Titan vibes
I would like to know how many women were sent there..
DJ 👎
Bringing immorality and disco 🪩 to a holy place 😂
Stupid act to make disco in this historical town.
The DJ clown 🤡
"Modernity"........These DJ shows are pathetic, kids pay money to see someone click MP3 files on a laptop.
I hate the French with a passion. But I love this edifice.
A magical place, outstanding architecture, a testimonial of how human can achieve wonders even with the lack of technology 1000 years ago... and you pick a mediocre light show dj to celebrate this place? Even a mime show would be better than this absurd show
"lack of technology" compared to today. from their point of view, they were at the peak of technology.
It is a shame a place that was used by monks to leave without the world to get closer to God now being used by djas for clubing your ancestors will be ashamed
