Triors Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Châtillon-Saint-Jean, France.
Triors Abbey is a Benedictine monastery housed in an 18th-century château located in the Drôme department. The compound displays classical architecture arranged around the traditional monastic layout typical of religious communities.
The monastery began in 1984 as a priory of Fontgombault Abbey and became an independent abbey in 1994. This expansion brought a established Benedictine community to the Drôme region.
The monastery maintains a community of forty monks who dedicate their lives to prayer, work, and the preservation of Gregorian chant traditions.
The abbey is accessible by car through the Drôme region via standard roads. Visitors should verify visiting hours and dress respectfully, as it remains an active monastic community.
The community produces recordings of Gregorian chants that span the entire liturgical year. These recordings preserve an ancient musical tradition that remains alive in the monastery's daily prayers.
