Location: Saint-Nicolas-Lès-Cîteaux, Beaune, Burgundy, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France
An essential abbey in the French landscape. Citeaux Abbey was the epicenter of the Cistercian movement. It is therefore a place steeped in history, and also a place of Christian contemplation that has remained alive thanks to the work and the presence of numerous Cistercian monks. It is possible to stay there, attend services, and also do some shopping in the shop after visiting the abbey. Citeaux cheese is an absolute must-try.
