Abbaye Notre-Dame de Boscodon

Located at an elevation of 1150 meters, Notre-Dame de Boscodon Abbey features stone vaults, regular geometric forms, and a central cloister within its architecture.

The construction of the abbey began in 1142 when Chalais monks arrived at the request of Guillaume de Montmirail, taking 32 years to complete the church.

The abbey maintains a library with extensive collections about architecture, religion, history, art, and nature, alongside regional and monastic products for purchase.

Visitors can explore the cloister and museum from Wednesday to Saturday between 10:00 AM and 5:30 PM, with different hours on Sundays and closures on Mondays and Tuesdays.

A permanent community of St. Dominique members resides in the abbey, organizing workshops, concerts, exhibitions, and nature activities throughout the year.
