Abbaye Notre-Dame-de-la-Charité, Cistercian abbey in Neuvelle-lès-la-Charité, France.

The Notre-Dame-de-la-Charité Abbey extends across a large estate with agricultural buildings, a water network system, and transformed religious structures.

Founded in 1133 by monks from Belvaux Abbey, the monastery experienced prosperity until the French Revolution in 1791 when it was sold as national property.

The abbey buildings underwent transformation in the 19th century, converting the religious complex into a classical garden estate with a dovecote.

The monastery grounds contain multiple protected historical structures, including underground waterways, farm dependencies, and architectural remains from different periods.

The site maintains an extensive hydraulic network with canals, aqueducts, and underground passages that demonstrate medieval engineering capabilities.
