This 12th century Cistercian abbey was regularly ravaged by wars, but its remains remain impressive, as does the silence of the place! Today in ruins, one can still visit the chapter house, the refectory, parts of the fortress and the church, but the excavations are not completed. Its medicinal plant garden, which marks the site of the former monastic infirmary, allows you to discover more than 200 species of plants with beneficial properties. Also to be discovered, the conservatory orchard of fruit varieties.

Lieu charmant où il est de bon ton de venir flâner, au dédale des ruines chargées d'histoire...

Cadre magnifique (forêt et petit plan d'eau)! Au delà des ruines et de la belle énergie des lieux, l'arboretum et les 400 plantes du jardin sont à découvrir! Très beau travail d'entretien. Le site se trouve en plein coeur de belles voies vertes: avis aux amateurs de randonnées (cyclistes aussi)...tables de pique-nique à disposition pour les pauses gourmandes (attention pas de poubelle: prévoir de reprendre ses déchets).

Beau travail de bénévoles pour la mise en valeur de ces ruines cisterciennes. Le jardin des plantes médicinales est vraiment à découvrir.
