The one thing they don't tell you is that Rosanbo is built in a deep recess. One goes down steep hills to approach the chateau. Not like most that sit up on high hills overlooking the countryside. Curious.
Rosenbo reveals the history of one of the most spacious and splendid estates in Brittany. Although it sounds as if it might have something to do with a rose, the name Rosenbo is actually derived from Bo, a local stream,Rosanbo meaning"rock above the Bo"in the Breton language.
Dating from the 15th century.The library contains over 8000 books that belonged to Claude Le Peletier.
We attempted to visit this chateau but it was closed for the holiday. So we will return soon.
One of the inner structures I am interested in seeing is the elaborate organ in gold that was built by Robert Dallam in 1653, in the Rosanbo chapel. Every chateau had their own chapel.

We had a peak of sunshine today. Just long enough to venture outside for our dinner at the picnic table and a marvelous sunset. We watch carefully for the sun to come out and try to take advantage of every morsel. I think I am sun starved. Comes with being a floridian.
Working feverisly on art work so as to finish as much as possible before leaving. And in between examining all the sites in the area. I have three more places I want to see before I leave . Carnac(whick may wait for another visit), Mont St Michel and Ginggamp ,where the only Black Modanna in Brittany is held.
