Towering over the Bouble Gorges, the Benedictine Abbey of St. Vincent of Chantelle, a listed Historic Monument, forms a beautiful fortress-style group of buildings, with its Romanesque church, ramparts and monastic buildings. As the abbey is occupied by a community of Benedictine sisters, only the church can be visited. In the abbey shop you can buy soap and cosmetics made on-site.
