The pontifical Carthusian monastery of the Val-de-Bénédiction was founded in the 14th century by Pope Innocent VI. The frescoes of the Saint John Baptist's Chapel were painted by Matteo Giovanetti, who created the frescoes in Avignon Palace. The three cloisters, surrounded by forty cells and gardens, made it one of the largest Carthusian monstery in France.
Beautiful environment to stroll around. Cloisters, gardens, cafe, book shop, theatre, restaurant, exhibitions. Everywhere you look there is a lovely vista. Takes you back in time.
