Bonvouloir et son histoire amusante:

Bonvouloir et son histoire amusante:
Ayant laissé un vieux cheval dans la forêt d'Andaine, Hugues, seigneur de Tessé a été surpris de le voir, quelques jours plus tard, revenir vers lui, frais et vigoureux. Intrigué, Hugues monta sur le cheval qui le conduisit aux sources de Bagnoles, où le vieux seigneur se baigna à son tour. Sortant de l'eau, il eut également trouvé force et jeunesse. Il épousa la Dame de Bonvouloir et eut beaucoup d'enfants avec elle. En reconnaissance de la force retrouvée, il fit monter cette tour, sous une forme symbolique...

BONVOULOIR TOWER AND ITS AMUSING STORY: Having left an aged steed in the Andaine Forest, Hugues, Lord of Tessé was surprised to see it come back to him a few days later, brisk and vigorous. Intrigued, Hugues mounted the horse that led him to the sources of Bagnoles, where the old Lord had a bath in his turn. Coming out of the water he found force and youth also. He married the Lady of Bonvouloir and had many children with her. In recognition of the recovered force, he made raise this tower, in a symbolic form...

DER BONVOULOIR-TURM UND SEINE AMÜSANTE GESCHICHTE : Nachdem er ein altes Pferd im Wald von Andaine zurückgelassen hatte, war Hugues, der Herr von Tessé, überrascht, als es einige Tage später frisch und kräftig zu ihm zurückkehrte. Neugierig geworden, stieg Hugues auf das Pferd, das ihn zu den Quellen von Bagnoles brachte, wo der alte Herr seinerseits badete. Als er aus dem Wasser stieg, hatte auch er Kraft und Jugend wieder gefunden. Er heiratete die Dame von Bonvouloir und hatte viele Kinder mit ihr. Aus Dankbarkeit für die wiedergewonnene Kraft liess er diesen Turm in symbolischer Form errichten...

Thanks Peter, don't worry, the tower is one of the last elements of the old Bonvouloir castle built in the 15th century, and it always stands proudly since then... Have a nice weekend.
