Imagine going back to a time when few people lived in the world and the country was almost unknown. It was a time of adventure and discovery. And it was at this time that there was a beautiful chateau and surrounding villages where people lived healthy and satisfied.
But time passed and the chateau began to leave. People went away and left the chateau a magical chapel of God's torment at St. Anne's. It was a small structure on top of the hill where people stopped and begged for health and happiness on the way.
