An interesting and beautifully told piece of history. I’m glad young Ermengarde had a good marriage and an important part in running the affairs of the land.

Beautiful photos too. Those crazy twisted trees look like frantic ceremonial dancers!

I totally agree Martina! Its pretty shocking for us to understand what young women (girls!) often had to go through for the sake of politics. Always really good to learn of someone who perhaps had a more positive experience, and important for us to pay consideration to them and what they did for us in history. Thanks for reading! :)
