This is an in-depth review of the mystery surrounding the village of Rennes-le-Chateau, the priest Berenger Sauniere and the immense fortune he dissipated before his death in 1917. This follows de Sede's first book published in the 60's on the subject of this hilltop village in southwest France, translated as The Accursed Treasure of Rennes-le-Chateau. He now analyses of the various author's contributions and theories that have sprung from the fertile minds of a host of authors. A new theory is put forward by de Sede after twenty years of intrigue and study. His original photos are included together with some topical colour illustrations. The shady characters lurking in the background are brought to life in these pages to give credence to this mystery, which has baffled the world over the centuries. A must read for the serious student of the subject, the footnotes elucidate the finer points and the comprehensive index added by the translator, contribute to this intriguing tale to provide a great source of reference from someone at the heart of the mystery.

The Paradise Co-ordinates by John R. Pollard Pdf

Ever since Berenger Sauniere arrived as cure of the tiny church in Rennes-le-Chateau, in the south west of France, and unearthed its mystery, nothing but more mystery has surrounded it. Sauniere began his career there in 1885, and although himself poor and impoverished did manage to raise sufficient funds to begin much needed restoration work on the church. In the course of that work it was discovered that one of the altar pillars was hollow. Inside the pillar were several wooden scrolls, and inside the scrolls were parchments. Two of these parchments turned out to be encrypted messages, which when decoded pointed to Rennes-le-Chateau as the repository of secret treasures. With help, Sauniere decoded these messages, and as a result acquired vast wealth almost overnight. There has been a great deal of speculation, delivered in the form of TV documentaries, a great many books, and even these days various websites, as to exactly what Sauniere''s discovery was. One theory suggests that Rennes-le-Chateau inherited the treasures of Jerusalem, plundered by the Romans in AD 70, then plundered again by the Visigoths when they sacked Rome. Thereafter the Visigoths spread their kingdoms into what is now France. Whatever this treasure was, with his new-found wealth Sauniere embarked on a wide range of private and civic building projects in Rennes-le-Chateau. He lived out the remainder of his life there, until 1917, in comfort and well-being. Precisely how he found these riches has stimulated much interest since, with most who have studied the subject believing the treasure still remains in Rennes-le-Chateau, and awaits re-discovery. So far, all scholarship and writing surrounding it has failed to offer even the slightest insight as to where the treasure is located. However, it is now the case that John R. Pollard''s Paradise Co-ordinates can and does reveal the point in Rennes-le-Chateau where the author determines the treasure is buried, through a reasoned working out of just those same clues and codes that were available to Sauniere. This is a subject that recurrently surfaces in the national press, has been featured in TV documentaries, and whose related websites receive an enormous number of visitors. First intimation that treasure was at some point secreted at Rennes-le-Chateau occurred during the seventeenth century, when a shepherd called Ignace Paris went looking for a lost sheep. Ignace stumbled on the entrance to a cave, and went inside to look. He found himself in a crypt. The crypt was littered with coffers, under the dead gaze of several skeletons. Amazingly the coffers were filled with gold coins. Naturally Ignace helped himself, and with his pockets full of gold returned to his village, where he was quizzed. When he refused to tell anyone where the vault was, he was accused of theft and executed. Much later, in 1885, the church of Rennes-le-Chateau received a new curate - Berenger Sauniere, who fared a good deal better than Ignace. Initially Sauniere was taken in and looked after by a family more impoverished than he. Their name was Denarnaud. Somehow Sauniere was granted church permission to move the Denarnaud family into the presbytery, and he arranged also for Marie - the Denarnaud daughter, still then a teenager - to help him run the church. Thereafter he and Marie became lifelong companions. In 1891 Sauniere raised funds to carry out restoration work to the church, in the course of which it was found that the altar pillars were hollow. Inside one pillar were four or five sealed wooden rolls, one of which contained a parchment. This parchment bore an inscription, its text a mix of French and Latin, which at first glance appeared to be a passage from the Gospels. The mayor got to hear of it and was soon asking Sauniere all about it. Satisfied that the mayor would never on his own interpret the text, Sauniere showed it him, and offered the view that the parchments were to do with the Revolution, but were without real value. That temporarily kept the mayor quiet, though Sauniere called a halt to his restoration project. In February 1892 it is believed that Sauniere went to Paris. Here he sought the help of church paleographers, who examined the parchment text. At this time Sauniere also made a few social calls - notably on Emma Calve, world-famous opera star and friend to Claude Debussy. He and Emma entered a relationship that was destined to endure. Probably as a result of the paleographers'' findings, Sauniere next headed off to the Louvre, where he acquired a copy of Poussin''s Shepherds of Arcadia. Poussin was a Renaissance painter, born near Paris in 1594, and who died in Rome in 1665, where he had spent most of his working life. He is known today principally for his scenes from the Bible and from Greco-Roman antiquity, of which Shepherds of Arcadia might be said to be an example. With his print and his paleographers'' report, Sauniere returned to Rennes-le-Chateau, having assembled sufficient information to locate whatever treasure was hidden in or around or beneath his church. Evidently one of the parchments yielded a measurement from the church altar to a position outside called the ''castle''. The documents also drew attention to a specific tomb in the churchyard - that of Marie de Negri D''Ables, Dame d''Hautpoul de Blanchefort - whose grave- and headstone bore slightly eccentric inscriptions. These turned out to provide a key to the encrypted text of his parchments, which Sauniere was now able to decode. When he and Marie dug, it was at the entrance to a vault, whose treasures were intact. Inevitably Sauniere may have sold certain pieces, and thereby amassed his fortune. Whatever was the case, he returned to his restoration work, now conceiving it on a far larger scale than before. The presbytery was repaired and a new wall put up round the churchyard. New works included a summer house, a rock garden, fountains. The five-kilometre cart track that led to the village Sauniere remade nearby as a modern highway. He purchased houses and land. He and Marie kept open house for the local gentry, and persons such as Emma Calve were known to visit. Generally both he and Marie lived high, with Sauniere careful enough to cover his tracks. Title deeds were put in Marie''s name, and the inscriptions on the Blanchefort grave- and headstone he obliterated (not knowing that a written copy had previously been made). The mayor called round again, superficially angered at Sauniere''s treatment of the tomb, but in truth curious as to his new-found wealth. Sauniere fobbed him off, with food, wine and cash, as was also the case with the bishop of Carcassonne, who himself came snooping. Undeterred, Sauniere went on with his projects. He built a villa, with ramparts and a tower, where he installed an extensive library. Soon after that the then bishop of Carcassonne retired. His successor, a Monsignor de Beausejour, was a little more forceful, and demanded to know the source of Sauniere''s wealth. Sauniere prevaricated. The bishop had him summoned to the court of Rome, and suspended. A new priest came to Rennes-le-Chateau, but was given the cold shoulder - not only by Sauniere, but by the villagers, whose loyalties hadn''t changed. Eventually the bishop accepted defeat. In January 1917 Sauniere arranged for a new water supply to the entire village, work that he himself didn''t live to see carried out. He died on 22nd January of cirrhosis of the liver (all that high living), leaving Marie as his sole beneficiary. That left Marie as the only person who knew his secret - which meant Marie was richly provided for throughout the remainder of her life. She shut herself away, and for many years lived as a recluse. In 1946, a M. Corbu and his wife came to live with her. To M. Corbu she related her fantastic story. She promised him her house and told him his future was certain to be secure, while not exactly saying how. The bad news for Corbu

The Portal by Patrice Chaplin Pdf

The true-life memoir Patrice Chaplin began in City of Secrets continues here in the story of her spiritual initiation into the Kabbalistic tradition preserved since the Middle Ages by a secret society in the pre-Roman city of Girona, Spain. Salvador Dalí was a member of that society, as was the renowned author Umberto Eco, the filmmaker Jean Cocteau, and Jancint Verdeguer, one of the most celebrated Catalan poets. Importantly, so was the mysterious Berenger Sauniere, the priest who in the late 1800s built Rennes-le-Château in southern France, with the Tour Magdala, a tower that is twin to the neo-gothic tower in Girona. In this gripping story that reads like the adventures of a female Castenada, Chaplin is led through a series of initiatory stages which correspond to the magical square of Venus, containing the constellation of the Great Bear.

The Holy Blood And The Holy Grail by Henry Lincoln,Michael Baigent,Richard Leigh Pdf

A nineteenth century French priest discovers something in his mountain village at the foot of The Pyrenees which enables him to amass and spend a fortune of millions of pounds. The tale seems to begin with buried treasure and then turns into an unprecedented historical detective story - a modern Grail quest leading back through cryptically coded parchments, secret societies, the Knights Templar, the Cathar heretics of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and a dynasty of obscure French kings deposed more than 1,300 years ago. The author's conclusions are persuasive: at the core is not material riches but a secret - a secret of explosive and controversial proportions, which radiates out from the little Pyrenees village all the way to contemporary politics and the entire edifice of the Christian faith. It involves nothing less than... the Holy Grail.

Saunier's Model and the Secret of Rennes-le-Chateau by André Douzet Pdf

In 1916, Berenger Sauniere, the enigmatic priest of the French village of Rennes-le-Chateau, created his ultimate clue: he went to great expense to create a model of a region said to be the Calvary Mount, indicating the 'Tomb of Jesus'. But the region on the model does not resemble the actual lay-out of Jerusalem. Did Sauniere leave a clue as to the true location of his treasure? And what is that treasure? After years of research, Andre Douzet discovered this model, never collected from the model maker by Sauniere, who had died just before the model's completion. Backed by evidence showing correspondence between Sauniere and the model maker, Douzet also reveals much new evidence, including the revelation that Sauniere spent large amounts of time and money in the city of Lyons, often on exotic and high tech photographic instruments. And for the first time, it is shown Sauniere met some very interesting people from esoteric, in particular Martinist, circles in Lyons. This body of evidence for the first time demonstrates there is indeed a true mystery surrounding this village priest -- a theory widely speculated on so far by others authors, but seldom if ever backed by evidence.The model is the only real clue Sauniere left behind as to the nature and location of his treasure -- and is unveiled in this book, which includes pictures and detailed drawings of the model, among many other things. It also reveals the location of the region where Sauniere had located his treasure...and where Douzet himself has so far recovered large quantities of precious and semi-precious materials. Above all, Douzet demonstrates that grounds of Perillos not so much hold a 'treasure' (though present), but rather a 'secret', and that this secret was the true importance of Sauniere's mystery; a secret that is said to be of vital importance -- and terrifying force.

The Merovingian Mythos and the Mystery of Rennes-Le-Chateau by Tracy R. Twyman Pdf

Do five mountains in Southern France contain the greatest treasure of human history? What exactly was the artifact known as the Holy Grail? Was civilization created by beings that were greater than human? Was there once a primeval language given to us by the gods? Does the so-called Grail bloodline descend not just from Jesus, but from the biblical Cain? What is it that makes the Grail bloodline special, and gives the "Grail kings" a divine right to rule? What is the nature of the ancient conflict that has shaped thousands of years of human history? These questions and more are addressed in Tracy R. Twyman's long awaited book "The Merovingian Mythos and the Mystery of Rennes-le-Chateau." Ms. Twyman has been a journalist and occult researcher for more than ten years. She has pursued the Grail mystery in her magazine, Dagobert's Revenge, for more than seven years. Now within the pages of this revolutionary work, Twyman reveals the shocking results of this exhaustive research. After reading this volume, you will never look at history or mythology the same way again.
