Yet again Paul Saussez is marketed as a “Know-All” – but all he does is to disregard Pierre Plantard’s hoaxes and replace them with his own “treasure of Rennes-le-Château” theories and the sweetness of the Grand Parchment, easily dismissed by serious-minded people.

His works are promoted on a website by a believer who has put his whole faith in the “inexhaustible treasure of Abbé Bérenger Saunière” – without adding the slightest piece of evidence for support. Both of them say things that the Believers want to hear and nothing else.

We require no less than the French Ministry of Culture and the relevant regional authority of DRAC to provide its professional knowledge about this treasure – the lack of comment for 70 years seems to signify negativity relating to this whole affair.
