Abbaye de Theuley, 12th-century Cistercian abbey in Vars, France.
The abbey complex includes two entrance pavilions, monumental gates, and remaining structures with medieval capitals supporting vaulted rooms.
Founded in 1130 by twelve monks from Morimond Abbey, the site was reconstructed in the 18th century under architect Nicolas Cailler's direction.
The abbey features architectural elements from different periods, combining Romanesque Cistercian style with 17th and 18th-century modifications.
Located at Place de la Corvée du Coq in Vars, the abbey remains private property and is currently closed to public visits.
Twenty-two wood samples from the abbey's structures date between the mid-17th and early 18th centuries, documenting its construction timeline.
