Very pleasant relaxing
Ideal for retirement
Very beautiful mass
An impressive building, it looks more like a castle than an abbey when seen from the other bank. Only negative point: I was a little frustrated not to be able to see it from the inside.
We only visit the abbey because the rest of the abbey is reserved for the monks who live there.
The 10 a.m. mass with Gregorian chants is worth the detour.
Of course there is only the abbey church to visit. But the two burials are worth every detour. Discover the angel who holds Judas' purse, the fruit of his betrayal.
