Abbaye de Fontaine-André
Abbaye de Fontaine-André, Religious abbey in Neuchâtel, Switzerland.
The Fontaine-André Abbey stands at the foot of Chaumont mountain, surrounded by forests, gardens, and fields overlooking Lake Neuchâtel and the Alps.
Founded in 1143 by the Mangolt brothers of Rudolf of Neuchâtel, the abbey received confirmation from the Bishop of Lausanne to establish a Premonstratensian order.
The community integrates prayer sessions, work activities, and educational programs, bringing together brothers and sisters in a shared spiritual environment.
The abbey provides accommodation in 16 rooms, including 7 single and 9 double rooms, making it suitable for visitors seeking spiritual retreats.
The property maintains an organic farm producing vegetables through a subscription-based system, connecting agricultural practices with spiritual values.
