    Founded in 1143 in the wooded Thar Valley, the Abbey of La Lucerne is a witness to Anglo-Norman architecture, between Romanesque and Gothic.
    Since 1959, for the third time in its history, this exceptional ensemble has benefited from remarkable preservation and restoration work to offer one of the most complete examples of medieval Premonstratensian architecture in France.
    Listed as a Historic Monument in 1928, the abbey strikes with the strength of its history led by passionate men. The emotion is born from the absolute simplicity of the architecture, its great luminosity and the preserved authenticity of its environment. Your entrance fees contribute to the preservation of the abbey by supporting the "Fondation Abbaye de La Lucerne d'Outremer", owner, which is in charge of its restoration, management and maintenance.
    Visitors can discover a 5-hectare monastic complex, preserved in its green setting on the edge of the forest: the Gatehouse and the courthouse, the church, the refectory, the cellars, the park crossed by an aqueduct, the abbey lodgings with the lake, the guest room and the dovecote.
