Tintern Abbey

Tintern Abbey
Tintern was a Cistercian monastery, founded in 1131 by Walter de Clare on the banks of the River Wye. After the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII it fell into ruin. The "romantic" ruins inspired writers and painters, among them Wordsworth and Turner.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tintern_Abbey

Tintern war ein Zisterzienserkloster, gegründet 1131 von Walter de Clare an den Ufern des Flusses Wye. Nachdem Heinrich VIII die Klöster aufgelöst hatte, verfiel es. Die "romantischen" Ruinen inspirierten später viele Künstler wie den Dichter Wordsworth und den Maler Turner.

A beautiful series, Gudrun. I wonder where the arch on the ground is supposed to be...maybe attached at the top???

Thank you so much, Diane! I guess the arch was a side entrance once and everything above it was filled by a huge window.

Thanks a lot, Christel! Great Britain has some very impressive and romantic ruins. Henry VIII saw to that;-)
