Pierre Plantard believed there was an entrance to a former Celtic sanctuary called the "Round Temple" by the ‘Roco Negro’ and located beneath the Château de Blanchefort – dubbed the ‘Roc Noir’ or ‘Rocher Noir’ (in an article by ‘M. Sangui’). Highly evocative of the articles by Le Comte de Moncharville as found in the first series of Vaincre which appeared during the 1940s (and the second series of Vaincre 1989-1990 coincided with a new outbreak of anti-semitic crimes in France with accompanying anti-semitic literature).

Our TREASURE, that of the PRIORY OF SION, is the SECRET of the BLACK ROCK (‘ROC NOIR’).

Revered since remote antiquity by those who believed in its immense power, it was confused with the DEVIL, and even LABOUISSE-ROCHEFORTE wrote, in a poem intended for the initiated:

"The Angel of the bastard race,

In a tone at once dry and crazed,

Keeps constant guard over

This immense income..."

and only the initiated could understand that the treasure was not gold, but the considerable energy that the MASTER of the genie - he who knows the secret - has at his disposal.

So my very dear Brothers, let nothing stop you from believing that the ORDER was indeed founded in 1681, even if we cannot in our own times demonstrate the eternal TRUTH.

What is happening at Rennes-le-Château is also happening at Rennes-les-Bains under the benevolent gaze of the MUNICIPALITY. The trees of the ROC NEGRÉ have been cut down with a chain saw and an old stone "shepherds' cottage" has been completely destroyed to create a road on a private property listed at the Land Registry as numbers 106 and 107. This laxity on the part of the civil service is intolerable and deserves to be dealt with by legal sanctions.

In this "Shepherds' cottage" there lived (back in the 1930s) Tino ROSSI for fifteen days, freely, without electricity and water. He drank from the stream of the Bousquet and ate goat's cheese, singing at the foot of the Roc Négre of his "Amour pour la nature" (Love for Nature).
