Tombelaine. / Остров Томбелен. #landscapephotography

It is a view of the small islet of Tombelaine from the wall of the abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel. The photo was taken in May 2006, at low tide. At this place the seabed opens at low tide for several kilometers. Small dots are people walking across the seabed. Such walks are very popular. Это вид на маленький островок Томбелен со стены аббатства Мон-сен-Мишель. Фотография сделана в мае 2006 года, во время отлива. В этом месте морское дно открывается при отливе на несколько километров. Маленькие точки – это люди, идущие по морскому дну. Такие прогулки очень популярны.
Nowadays, Tombelaine is absolutely deserted island 250 * 150 meters. Rather, it is deserted in the sense of the absence of people on it. But there live birds, and since 1985 the island is a bird sanctuary. Сейчас Томбелен совершенно пустынный остров 250*150 метров. Вернее, пустынный в смысле отсутствия на нём людей. Но там живут птицы, и с 1985 года остров является птичьим заповедником.
Once upon a time there lived monastic hermits, then there was a monastery. In the fifteenth century, during the centennial war, the British used Tombelen as the base for the siege of Mont-Saint-Michel. They could not take the fortress-abbey. But later the king ordered to destroy all buildings on a small island. Когда-то на нём жили то монахи-отшельники, то был монастырь. В XV веке во время столетней войны англичане использовали Томбелен как базу для осады Мон-сен-Мишель. Крепость-аббатство им взять не удалось. Но позже король приказал уничтожить все постройки на маленьком острове.

The name of the island, according to legend, arose from the words "the tomb of Hélène". It is assumed that on the island the grave of Princess Helene, the daughter of King Hoël. This is the most popular version. But there are other options from the Celtic words. Название острова по легенде возникло от слов "the tomb of Hélène", «гробница Елены». Предполагается, что на острове могила принцессы Елены, дочери короля Хоэля. Это самая популярная версия. Но есть и другие варианты от кельтских слов.
