Monastery for women only, for retreats in the sharing of prayer, with a bookbinding workshop.

Founded in Dol-de-Bretagne in 1627, the monastery of the Visitandines was transferred to Caen in 1631, near the Abbey of Men and the Romanesque church of Saint-Étienne. It was here that Léonie, the sister of Saint Thérèse-de-l’Enfant-Jésus, lived between 1899 and 1941. The crypt of the chapel houses her tomb. The nuns welcome women only, for individual retreats in the sharing of prayer. They also run a bookbinding workshop and a hostel for students.
