La Part-Dieu, Medieval monastery in Bulle, Switzerland

The Part-Dieu monastery features multiple stone buildings surrounded by a large park where chickens, ducks, and peacocks roam freely within courtyards.

The monastery was established in 1307 by Catherine de Weissenbourg, wife of Pierre III de Gruyère, with the consent of their son Count Pierre IV.

The monastery organizes meditation workshops, yoga sessions, tai-chi classes, and concerts, contributing to local spiritual and wellness practices.

The facility provides accommodation for up to 30 persons, making it suitable for group retreats and individual stays throughout the year.

Between 1810 and 1816, Part-Dieu remained the only active Carthusian monastery in operation, playing a role in the restoration of Grande Chartreuse.
