| Summary: | The « Guest-house of St Hugh of Cluny » was built during the construction of Cluny III by Hugh of Semur (1049-1109). It was situated near the abbey’s entrance and opened on a large courtyard giving access to the cloister, between the front nave on the north side and the chaplaincy on the south side. This building remained quite unknown despite Kenneth J. Connant’s important study. In 2012, a restoration project regarding the eastern and southern façades allowed an archeological study of the building, wich was rearranged during the xixth century, and a study of the framework using dendrochronology. These new results were then confronted to those of several diggings made in the front and in the back of the building during the 1990’s and to other sources (archives and drawings). It permits to outline an impressive large and well-constructed primitive building. |
