Abbaye Notre-Dame de Bon Secours de Blauvac, Cistercian abbey in Blauvac, France.

The Notre-Dame de Bon Secours Abbey sits at the foot of Mont Ventoux, twenty kilometers east of Carpentras, surrounded by lavender fields and natural landscapes.

Founded in 1817 by sisters who fled the French Revolution, the community moved to several locations before establishing their permanent residence in Blauvac in 1991.

The monastery maintains Cistercian traditions through daily prayers, scriptural readings, and communal work, with seventeen sisters currently residing in the community.

Visitors can stay at the hospitality house L'Oasis or La Rencontre building, which accommodates groups of up to twenty people for spiritual retreats.

The abbey produces communion hosts as their primary source of income, continuing a tradition inherited from Norbertine nuns in 1909.
