Summary: Throughout the years, the Villers-la-Ville abbey site had lost its logic and unity. Divided and savagely crossed by a national road – making it hardly legible as a homogenous whole – it was reduced to the ruins of the holy yard. This incoherent and chaotic layout led to the creation of a masterplan focusing on reuniting the Cistercian site.
