“THE MIDDLE AGES CHALLENGES YOU” This is the new theme of the 2024 animations of the château de Saint Mesmin. Sport is health! It is necessary every day because life is rough. The maintenance of the body includes physical exercises, team games, jousting that prepare for daily work, military training and leisure, not excluding the hygiene of the body after all these activities. Eat well to feel fit and healthy. So cooking is an art of dietetics! Thanks to the virtues of cooked foods, we can prevent and cure while awakening the taste buds. It is also a prestigious art to amaze guests at large receptions. A healthy body in a healthy mind! One can't go without the other for a perfect balance. One must cultivate and nourish one's moral force by knowledge : word games, puzzles, board games, riddles, science and arts to forge one's mind of iron.
