Nestled in the hollow of its valley, the Abbey of Notre Dame de Sénanque remains one of the purest witnesses of the primitive Cistercian architecture.
Guided tours (1 hour in French) or unguided with HistoPad (10 languages).
In the silent hollow of a valley, away from the village of Gordes, the monastic tradition persists in the middle of lavender fields. The Sistercian abbey of Notre Dame de Sénanque still houses a community. This high place of Romanesque art is a beautiful wander, an invitation to go back in time. Take advantage of the histopad and explore the abbey in the 12th century...
