The Exposition, the store of Taiz��

Since staying in Taizé is not expensive, a lot of money for upkeeping the community is made through their store. They sell books, CDs, stationary, art objects etc. Everything is made in Taizé and it's beautiful.
Usually people manage to say for two days "I'm not going to buy this or that" and then on the third they start buying.
A good thing to get is the Taizé bench, since there are no chairs in the church, people kneel on these benches. From a certain age on this is much more comfortable than sitting on the floor.
