Old abbey with castle in the south of France

Former Cistercian abbey on the Way of St. James, founded in 1137. A rare feature is a preserved abbey chapel from the 12th century with a Romanesque-Byzantine facade.

This unique property extends over 50 hectares of untouched nature with a river course and ancient remains. There is also a neoclassical castle from the 19th century as well as extensive agricultural buildings and a medieval mill.

At the stately entrance, the castle dominates the courtyard with its symmetrical façade. Inside there is an elegant staircase and stylish interiors. The Romanesque chapel from the 12th century presents a harmonious façade, three rows of arcades and an IHS fronton added by the Jesuits. The impressive interior is classified as a historical monument.

All of the buildings are in urgent need of conservation work and restoration.
