Carmel de Lisieux, Carmelite convent in Lisieux, France.

The Carmel de Lisieux stands at 37 rue du Carmel, featuring a chapel that combines Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements within its stone walls.

Saint Thérèse of Lisieux entered this convent in 1888 at age 15, where she developed her spiritual teachings known as the Little Way.

The convent preserves extensive archives containing Saint Thérèse's writings, photographs, and personal items that document her religious journey.

The monastery welcomes visitors to attend daily prayer services and Mass, with guided tours available to explore the grounds and chapel.

The Carmelite nuns maintain gardens within the convent walls, dedicating their lives to contemplative prayer and continuing Saint Thérèse's spiritual legacy.
