Abbaye Notre-Dame de Maylis, Benedictine monastery in Maylis, France

The large neo-Gothic church, constructed in 1875, contains both ancient and modern artworks alongside a Romanesque chapel at its premises.

The site attracted Santiago de Compostela pilgrims during the Middle Ages due to its central position between Saint-Sever and Orthez.

The Olivetan Benedictine monks maintain the shrine of Notre-Dame de Maylis while producing traditional herbal teas and beeswax according to ancient methods.

Located midway between Mugron and Hagetmau on the D18 road, the abbey welcomes groups of five to fifty visitors for guided tours lasting one hour.

From its elevated position above the Chalossais landscape, visitors can observe the Pyrénées Mountains when weather conditions permit.
