The small cloister was finished
in 1219. It was restored in the 19th century. The galleries are
covered with barrel vaults, supported by transverse ribs resting
on consoles. It was reserved solely for the prior and the procurator
of the Carthusian monastery, as well as for the private discussions requested by the Carthusian fathers. |

The small cloister, an architectural jewel, is a masterpiece achieved by an effective fusion of regional Romanesque and Gothic styles.

In the wall at the back of the small cloister, a stone
engraved with a Latin cross and a crosier marks the tomb of the
founder Guilhem de Vénéjan. |
