Founded
in 1204, the Carthusian monastery of Valbonne is located at the heart of
an exceptional forest in the Provence hills. Up until 1901 a community
of monks lived in this monastery, following the rules of Saint Bruno.
From the Conventual Church to the Chapel of Relics,
through the Small Cloister to the Grand Cloister and
after a visit to a monk's cell, one can imagine the life of the
Carthusian Order within the site, and discover their universe
of silence and solitude.
