Abbaye de Beaumont, Benedictine nunnery in Tours, France.

Abbaye de Beaumont was a Benedictine nunnery located in Tours with a church containing a central nave, two transepts with side chapels, and a choir. The complex sat within cultivated grounds that included meadows and vineyards supporting the community's daily needs.

Founded in 1002 by Hervé de Buzançais, treasurer of Saint-Martin Basilica, this monastery operated as a religious community for nearly eight centuries. The French Revolution brought its closure in 1790, ending centuries of monastic life at the site.

The abbey's name comes from the Belmons hill, a rise above the Cher floodplain recorded as early as 845. Marie de Beauvilliers introduced the Counter-Reformation here in 1586, and Henriette d'Entragues was held prisoner at the abbey between 1604 and 1610. Henriette Louise de Bourbon, a royal relative, served as abbess from 1733 to 1772.

The site is now an archaeological area where visitors can see the excavated layout of the former monastery marked on the ground. Wear comfortable walking shoes as the terrain is uneven in places and some areas may require extra care when navigating.

The 2022–2023 excavation led by Philippe Blanchard of INRAP uncovered the remains of a village about 1,200 years old beneath the abbey. The site had already held a chapel, Notre-Dame-des-Miracles, mentioned in sources of the 9th and 10th centuries, and a cemetery of several thousand burials.
