Murder-mystery at the Abbey, a game in the abbey's grounds

The lifeless body of brother Adelme has been found at the foot of the wall beneath the main terrace. How could he have fallen there? Did someone push him? Suspecting another monk at Aulps Abbey, the abbot asks visitors to solve the mystery.

This game, played outdoors, is suitable for adults and teenagers over 16yrs.
Price: 7€ per person.
A minimum of 15 people must be booked to take part in this game (by prior reservation only).
