big time
The Normandy tidal island of Mont St. Michel is significant in both history and legend, which include angelic visitations, war, pilgrimage, incarceration, Kingly sojourns and fire. The mount's abbey has enormous architectural significance. In September of 2006 an impressive reimagining of Mont St. Michel by scientist and artist Laurent Maget took place, with the very able assistance of the French Army. Le Mont Solaire turned the abbey's spire into the gnomon of a sundial, by placing large reflective numerals on the surrounding sands. The shadow, which can reach three quarters of a mile, now tells time. Awesome!
