Nostradamus

Nostradamus is a name known by many. He was born in the 1500’s in France and is known for his prophesies, he was a "seer of the future" or what we today may call a psychic. I have had an interest in him for many years and after studying his works pretty thoroughly I find his predictions generic for the most part, although some can be fairly convincing. I am still intrigued though. On one of my visits to France, David and I made a visit to Salon and I had the opportunity to visit the grave of Nostradamus. He was originally buried elsewhere but reinterred in a tomb in the Collegiale St. Laurent, in Salon. We went inside the church and saw the tomb and took the following photos that day. It was very dark and gloomy inside the church, as it tends to be in most of the old cathedrals and and churches in Europe.
