Abbey of Boulbonne, Cistercian abbey in Cintegabelle, France
The abbey complex includes preserved facades, a brick entrance portal, a chapter house, refectory, and sections of the original cloister corridors.
Founded in 1129 near Mazères, the abbey was destroyed by Huguenots in 1567 and reconstructed at its current location starting in 1632.
The monastery exemplifies Cistercian architectural principles through its functional design and incorporation of regional building materials and techniques.
The Moulas family maintains the abbey under Historic Monuments supervision, with visits arranged based on availability throughout the year.
Only one-third of the original structure remains after the French Revolution, including rare medieval dovecotes and stable buildings.
