Gaussan Priory, Benedictine abbey in Bizanet, France
The Gaussan Priory stands amid vineyards in southern France, featuring classical religious architecture with stone walls and a bell tower at its center.
Founded in 1984, the abbey originated from a former Cistercian grange that belonged to Fontfroide Abbey during the 12th century.
The monastery maintains daily Gregorian chants and celebrates the Tridentine Mass according to traditional Benedictine practices.
Visitors can reach the abbey by taking the D613 road from Narbonne, following signs to Bizanet and then to Notre-Dame de Gaussan.
The monks continue the centuries-old wine production tradition, maintaining vineyards on the monastery grounds while following Benedictine principles.
