Abbaye de Droiteval, Cistercian abbey in Claudon, France.
The abbey buildings and church stand within the Darney forest, two kilometers from the confluence of Ourche Valley with the Saône River.
Founded in 1130 by Lord Aubert de Darney, the monastery transformed from a women's abbey to a priory under Morimond's control in 1433.
The church houses a Haerpfer organ installed in 2000, featuring 51 stops and 3,800 pipes transferred from Nancy.
The site operates as an art and cultural center since 2004, providing space for various visual artists to create and display their work.
The abbey walls, constructed from local sandstone, measure one meter thick and feature varying stone courses indicating multiple construction phases.
