One of the most powerful abbeys in Europe
0
0
In the middle of the first foothills of the Corbières, 15 minutes from the city of Narbonne is the Abbey of Sainte-Marie de Fontfroide. It is a treasure from the Middle Ages. After the departure of the last monks living in this place steeped in history, the abbey was bought by Gustave and Madeleine Fayet. Previously recognized as one of the most powerful abbeys in Europe, Fontfroide is now a private monument open to visitors. It is maintained and protected by the descendants of the Fayet family.
