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.

Mysteries of Templar Treasure & the Holy Grail by Lionel Fanthrope,Patricia Fanthrope Pdf

Next to Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland, no other place on Earth holds as much esoteric symbolism as France's Rennes le Ch'teau. Its location and design are the subjects of countless rumors, myths, and legends. Mysteries of Templar Treasure and the Holy Grail, formerly published as The Secrets of Rennes le Chateau, delves into the reality behind the action and adventure of The Da Vinci Code. Rennes le Chateau has plenty of secrets: buried treasure, unsolved murders, supernatural powers, codes on parchments and tombstones, not to mention clues concealed in statues and paintings, enigmatic priests who controlled immense wealth, and secret societies that are still active today. The authors survey the arcane history and secrets of Rennes le Chateau, including its relationship to the Merovingian bloodline of Christ. The Chateau is a possible location of an immense treasure, such as a Templar, Cathar, or Priory of Sion hoard. The final resting place of a famous artifact like the Ark of the Covenant, the Spear of Longinus, the Emerald Tablets of Hermes Trismegistus- or even the Holy Grail. The authors also examine Rennes le Chateau's proximity to Cathar and Templar fortresses, its mystical layout, and its location on the same Paris meridian as so many other esoteric mysteries. Extensive appendices in the book offer possible solutions to secret cryptograms, point out odd connections and commonalities between Rennes le Chateau and J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, and suggest the possibility of fourth-dimension/tesseract implications.

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 Holy Place by Henry Lincoln Pdf

From the author of Holy Blood, Holy Grail-the basis for The Da Vinci Code-comes a deeper exploration of the secrets of Rennes-le-Chteau. In 1982, Henry Lincoln, with colleagues Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh, published Holy Blood, Holy Grail (Dell), which became an immediate international bestseller. It investigated Rennes-le-Chteau, a small town in France where, in the late 19th century, Berenger Saunire's discovery of a series of parchments led in turn to a large but cursed treasure that challenged many traditional Christian beliefs-including the possibility that Jesus's bloodline still exists. The treasure's story moved back through history to the Crusades, the origins of the Knights Templar, and the Virgin Birth itself. While Baigent and Leigh moved on to different subjects, Lincoln has continued to pursue the mysteries of Rennes-le-Chteau. Dan Brown's international bestseller The Da Vinci Code (Doubleday, 3/03)-based on Holy Blood, Holy Grail-has re-ignited curiosity about this ancient, powerful town. In The Holy Place, Lincoln reveals through further surveys, decoding, and analysis that this area in southwest France is the site of a vast megalithic Christian masterpiece-a holy place of enormous size and importance.

The Priory of Sion by Jean Luc Chaumeil,Chantal Low Pdf

The mysteries of Rennes-le-Chateau and the Priory of Sion have gripped the imagination of modern culture, producing factual and fictional best-sellers which have spun webs of mystery and speculation. Works like The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail, The Templar Revelation and The DaVinci Code are all united in drawing much of their information from the research of the only man who has uncovered the true story of the Priory of Sion from the inside, French author and journalist Jean-Luc Chaumeil. Now for the first time, his revelations and the research which fuelled the whole movement are made available in English, providing the most revealing and coherent exploration of the web of ciphers, genealogies, secret societies and esoteric mysteries which surround the tangled tapestry of bloodlines, lost kings and hidden treasures. Jean-Luc Chaumeil's discoveries are all brought together in a wealth of documents, experiences, ciphers, interviews and intelligence reports which combine his three French works (Rennes-le-Chateau: Les Archives du Prieure de Sion; Rennes-le-Chateau - Gisors; and Rennes-le-Chateau: Le Testament du Prieure de Sion) on these intriguing modern myths which have been derived from ancient knowledge and truths. The nature of the treasure of Rennes-le-Chateau is discussed, from claims of buried treasure sacked by the Goths from Rome and containing the artefacts of the Temple of Jerusalem, to gold made by the alchemist Nicholas Flamel, to drops of the blood of Christ saved by Joseph of Arimathea and Mary Magdalene. The author reveals the truth behind the bloodline of the Merovingian Kings, and the treasure allegedly found by Father Berenger Sauniere at the turn of the twentieth century, and spent on the Magdala Tower with its statue of Asmodeus. He shows how history has been re-interpreted through clever manipulation by a few individuals, exploring the origins of the Order of Sion and its connection to John the Baptist, as well as the schism with the Knights Templar. This book is the definitive work on Rennes-le-Chateau and the Priory of Sion by the only man who has had access to all the major players, places and papers, containing copies of key documents such as Stone and Paper (Pierre et Papier), and vital information gleaned from his contact with the propagators of the Priory of Sion - Pierre Plantard, Phillipe de Cherisey and Gerard de Sede.

The Church of Mary Magdalene by Jean Markale Pdf

An extensive examination of the religious anomalies and lost treasure of the Mary Magdalene Church in Rennes-le-Château • Looks at the connection between the Templars, Cathars, and other enigmatic groups in the history of this church and the surrounding area • Maintains that Mary Magdalene was the high priestess who anointed Jesus into his priesthood, in accordance with ancient religious tradition • Explores the role of the Sacred Feminine in early Christian Church history The small church of Rennes-le-Château, in a remote village in southern France, may well hold the key to the proof of Mary Magdalene’s marriage to Jesus and the bloodline they founded. In 1885 the village of Rennes-le-Château welcomed a new priest, Abbe Saunière, for its church dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene. Abbe Saunière ordered very strange restoration work for the church, and it is thought that he discovered something during this renovation that brought him to the attention of the power brokers of that time and made him a very rich man. Possible identifications of his discovery range from the gold pillaged from Delphi in Roman times; the treasure brought out of Jerusalem by the Templars, who had a strong presence in this area; and the missing Cathar treasure, spirited out of Montségur mere days before the fall of that fortress. Yet even more curious and compelling is this church’s ambiguous portrayal of Mary Magdalene. Markale explains that the unusual depictions of Mary in the church hint at an even more archaic role performed by Mary that could shake the very foundations of the Church if it were fully understood: that of the high priestess who anoints the priest king into his spiritual duties.
