The Cantauque Monastery is located on an agricultural and forested estate in the Hautes Corbières region, some thirty kilometers from Carcassonne (Aude). Ecclesiastically, it falls under the Romanian Orthodox Metropolis of Western and Southern Europe.
The monastery was founded in 2002 by a group of monks who had previously lived for more than twenty years near Jerusalem.
The monastery is French-speaking. The melodies of its celebrations are adaptations of Greek ecclesiastical music (psaltic) into French.
