On Sunday at 15:15 p.m., a sister from the community will show you around the church. It is a Romanesque church where monks prayed as early as 1101. This visit will include both a historical component and an architectural component. Free visit outside the offices.

History, culture and heritage: 
Romanesque building built in 1101 with a single bay nave. The crossing of the transept is remarkable with its carved polychrome keystone. Protected as a Historic Monument in 1974, it has been occupied by Dominican nuns since 1963.
