    Abondance

    A treasure hunt to find a mischievous angel and learn all about the Abbey of Abondance…

    After discovering the three parts of the abbey (the church, the cloister and the monastery), the pupils set out to find the angel Giacomo. Many themes are covered during the visit: sculpture and wall paintings, monastic architecture, daily life in the Middle Ages, and life in a monastery.
    During the game, the pupils, divided into teams (10 teams maximum) and provided with a logbook (1 per team), progress on a game board and move around independently. They have to use their memory to answer questions or take up challenges!
