MAY 1ST - 2020

It is the story of May 1st in the sixteenth century with the king of France Charles IX who decided to offer his subjects a “lucky charm” through a Lily of the valley





But he didn’t know that this flower is a very dangerous poison when eaten or even just drinking the water in which they are kept.
The French poor people, who were very hungry in this period because of a famine, ate in their soup & drank the water of this beautiful white plant and died through different terrible ways.




We can finally
ask ourselves and decide if we should or not offer this Lily of the Valley to our enemies or our friends?

If you want to visit monuments of this period of the Renaissance, where the kings of France were living, we suggest you to visit the chateaux’s located outside Paris in the charming Loire valley.
