π³οΈ Help Save the Cordeliers Friary in Les Thons, Vote for Our Heritage!
π³οΈ Voting will open in 11 days...βͺ In the heart of the Vosges, the church of the Cordeliers Friary in Les Thons is a remarkable example of medieval Franciscan architecture.
Built between 1452 and 1486, it forms part of one of the best-preserved medieval Franciscan complexes in eastern France. Listed as a Historic Monument since 1980, the church also houses precious protected stained-glass windows. ποΈ
Today, the building remains at risk due to cracked vaults, deteriorated masonry and a severely damaged floor. The project includes consolidating the vaults, repairing the plasterwork and restoring the former funerary chapels. Eventually, the church will be able to house a museum of sacred art open to the public. π οΈ
From 19 October to 1 November 2026, every vote will count.
The project receiving the most votes in each department will be awarded an exceptional grant of β¬10,000 to help fund its restoration work.
β€οΈ Let us join forces to make the church of the Cordeliers Friary in Les Thons the winning project for the Vosges!
Please spread the word and share this post widely. Together, let us help preserve this exceptional heritage for future generations.
