Welcome to my website

This site is dedicated to researching the Mystery created by Berenger Sauniere, the priest of the small hilltop village of Rennes-le-Chateau in France.

Researching the facts of this Mystery is no easy task. Due to the amount of conflicting information it is difficult to find any real facts. I soon realized that I would have no choice but to go back to the beginning of the story if I was going to make any progress in solving the mystery. I ignored anything that could not be verified as genuine, this included the 2 parchments associated with the mystery and anything they mentioned, the paintings for example. Instead I concentrated on what physical evidence Sauniere had left us in the decorations of his small church, dedicated to Mary Magdalene, and his domain.

Over the following years and after many visits to to Sauniere's church and the surrounding landscape, I started to discover certain artifacts, these will soon become known in a forthcoming major documentary to be shown on the cinema in selected countries, this website and my book which will be available soon.

New re-designed BLOODLINE website and Bloodline Movie Blog

The Bloodline film is opening first in New York and Los Angeles, with a planned nationwide release immediately following, and ultimately being released worldwide.

The then DRAC Commissioner in the region, Jean-Pierre Giraud said, "This is certainly a very intriguing discovery, but it's just too early to tell how important it is. We need to do a full survey of the site to determine the age of the corpse and the other items in the tomb. The archeology department of the DRAC-LR will be carrying out an examination of the site as soon as access has been made possible."

A selection of interviews with some of those involved in the Bloodline film.

I would like to say a big thank you to Pat for taking the time and trouble to translate, what is at times my bad English and grammar, into German for me, it is much appreciated, thank you Pat.

I am looking for someone to translate my web pages into French, so if anyone feels up to the task please contact me.

New Mayor finds Freshly Dug Tunnel at Rennes-le-Chateau


A tunnel has been found dug under the cemetery at Rennes.
Yesterday an inhabitant of the village noticed that soil had been disturbed on the path which runs alongside and below the cemetery wall. Intrigued, the villager went closer and very quickly guessed what had happened. Stones were clumsily placed to hide the entrance which apparently resembles the entrance to a tunnel. Unidentified people had been digging there in order to reach some mysterious cave where they hoped to discover the treasure of the Abbé Sauniere.
"I alerted the gendarmes who are organising patrols" declared Alexandre Painco, the new mayor."I would remind you that there is a local byelaw, passed several years ago, which forbids digging in the village." But this byelaw does not stop the fervent amateurs of the mystery of Rennes-le-Château.
