Cceur de Lion. Queen Eleanor and Henry
II, with their full length efigies, are on
view there. the graves themselves were
never found and II was believed that they
had been desecrated in the revolution Of
1889 and the royal remains scattered.
The old abbey became a prison in 1904 1t
has since fallen largely into ruins, and NJ.
Magne, OF the Fine Arts Department, was
recently instructed by the Minister for Fine
Arts to restore 1t. as far as was possible. to
its original condition.
During his work in the ruins of the crypt
NJ. Magne had a wall pulled down, and
found behind it an arch with a gold cross
and a coat OF arms, with several gold
leopards inscribed on It. On the walls were
the names Richard" "Alieuor' tEieanor)
and Henri"
NJ Magne gave orders to dig, and the
four graves were found. The skeletons lay
from east to west.
AS coon as the restoration IL completed
the skeletons OF the Plantagenets will be
