Monastère de Bethléem des Voirons, Mountain monastery in Boëge, France.
The Notre-Dame des Voirons Monastery sits at the summit of Monts Voirons, providing clear views of Mont-Blanc and containing multiple chapels and art studios.
Lord Louis de Langin established the first chapel in the 15th century, which contained a black Virgin statue until a fire caused its relocation to Boëge Church.
The monastery maintains art studios where the Petites soeurs de Bethléem nuns create various works while following their religious practices and traditions.
The monastery welcomes visitors Tuesday through Saturday between 13:00 and 16:30, with free entry and an optional presentation film about the site.
The religious community has expanded from its initial group in 1967 to approximately 100 nuns who maintain the monastery's spiritual and artistic activities.
