Cistercian abbey with an impressive abbey church and a remarkable park, a heritage jewel at the foot of the castle of Mauvezin
At the foot of the Château de Mauvezin in the Baronnies region, the Abbey de l'Escaladieu was founded around 1140. Heir to the Cistercian precepts of simplicity, its architecture is an invitation to serenity. Renovated in 1997, the abbey offers self-guided, guided and audio-guided tours. Stroll through the gardens and discover the annual contemporary art exhibition. For a mysterious atmosphere, take part in torchlight tours or sample local produce at the Christmas market. And don't forget to explore the interactive multimedia trail, which will appeal to young and old alike.
