BENEDICTINE ABBEY OF BOURGUEIL
Benedictine abbey of Bourgueil, with a magnificent suspended staircase that leads to a small museum of Arts and Traditions.
Founded in 990, the Benedictine Abbey of Bourgueil is a place rich in history that has stood the test of time. Its new owners have reopened the doors of this emblematic site, offering visitors a tour that's both historical and artistic. The discovery of the site combines the built environment, from the abbot's castle to the chapel, the monastery and its refectory, now a cinema. The tour continues in the park and gardens, which are rich in natural beauty.

Un petit départ le matin ne serait il pas à envisager ?
Cela étant dit, les jardins étaient très jolis. On voit qu'ils sont assez récents mais on peut y voir un sérieux potentiel pour les prochaines années.
Je conseille donc. Mais allez y aux heures de visites guidées sous peine d'être, comme nous, un peu frustrés.
