Abbaye du bois de Nottonville

Sheltered behind a high city wall, the abbey of Nottonville is a former priory which protected the Benedictine monks. You can enter through an imposing, fortified gate. The monks' barn is particularly impressive with its 16-metre high roofs. Here, the monks managed their properties and windmills situated along the river Conie. The Friends of the Abbey Association, who are working hard on the site's enhancement, organise various cultural events. The fortified gate, the monks' barn, the monks' dwelling, the dovecote and the underground cellars are not to be missed!
