Situated on the edge of the Retz forest, close to waterways, the abbey was founded by Saint-Bernard in 1131 and consecrated the following century in the presence of Saint-Louis. Partially ruined during the French Revolution, the abbey suffered destruction during both world wars. The tall façade of the abbey church stands proudly on the village square. On a self-guided tour, you can admire some remarkable vaulted rooms and a 13th-century boiler room with central chimney. From the cloister, let the delicate scent of roses carry you to the ruins of the abbey church, now in the open air. Nature blends with architecture in a setting worthy of a Châteaubriand novel.
Did you know? Longpont Abbey was the filming location for Martin Bourboulon?s Les Trois mousquetaires : d?Artagnan, released in March 2023. Can you recognize the location and the scene? Hint: The Queen and the Duke of Buckingham met there.
