History of Mont Saint Michel



I talk about history of Mont Saint Michel. At fist, in 708, archangel Michel appear in dream of bishop Aubert, and order him to build temple in the rocky mountain. But Aubert remains ignore. Michel get angry, and stick finger Aubert’s head. Bishop Aubert finally built temple. So history of Most Saint Michel as holy place have started. In 14th century, the Hundred Years War starts. Mont Saint Michel is shut down, and use as fort. The Hundred Years War finish, and King LouisXlll admired archangel Michel who lead victory of France. After the France Revolution, in 18th century, Mont Saint Michel is used as prison, and be scared as Bastille of sea until Napoleonlll shut down. And, now Mont saint Michel is famous place which three million tourist a year visit. But, recently, Mont Saint Michel have serious ecology problem. A road between the island and the mainland dam tides, and makes a heap of two meters sand. As provision against this problem, in 2009, this road is demolish, and planning new bridge a river in 2010.
