THE SAINT-ANDRÉ ABBEY AND ITS GARDENS
Go there and contact
An abbey with Italian and Mediterranean gardens and panoramic views to visit in a video tour.
The abbot's palace epitomizes the splendor of the 18th century and the Saint-Maur congregation. You can admire the sumptuous vaulted rooms, redesigned in the 17th and 18th centuries by Pierre Mignard, the King's architect. As early as 1930, the poet Elsa Koeberlé and the painter Genia Lioubov designed the Italian garden on the 2 hectares surrounding the abbey, making it splendid. This development was continued by Roseline Bacou, and then her family, who opened the site to the public in 1990.

La vue sur Avignon est superbe et sans l'affluence !!
Le cadre est idéal pour admirer le mont Ventoux au loin et observer l'architecture de la ville d'avignon entourée de ses remparts !
Jardin ZEN chargé d'histoire qui permet de se reposer et de profiter de l'instant présent avec en prime une vie panoramique sur Avignon et le Palais des Papes.
Des jardins somptueux, aux mille odeurs, remplis de plantes et fleurs magnifiques. Passer du temps dans ce lieu est très reposant. On se cultivera aux différents panneaux indicatifs, on s'émerveillera devant les statues, l'ancien site de l'Abbaye, sa cave, etc.
À ne pas rater !
