Abbaye d'Entremont, Medieval abbey in Glières-Val-de-Borne, France.
The stone church displays characteristic medieval architecture with a square bell tower attached to the choir on the south side of the building.
Founded in 1154 by Augustinian canons, the abbey controlled access between valleys until its secularization and eventual closure in 1776.
The choir preserves fifteenth-century stalls and contains a decorated altarpiece from 1685, representing religious craftsmanship of different periods.
The abbey church opens for religious services and guided tours from July to mid-September, requiring advance planning for visits.
Archaeological excavations since 2015 have revealed four buildings and two graves beneath twentieth-century demolition layers.
