    Notre-Dame de Clairefontaine abbey or Cordemois abbey is an abbey of Cistercian nuns whose act of foundation dates back to 1845. Very pretty view from the hiking trail on the other side of the Semois. Path without great difficulty but which can be slippery in wet or freezing weather.

      In the right place, you can catch a glimpse between the trees, from the banks of the Semois...

        Located on the Semois, 3 km from Bouillon, the abbey is home to a community of Cistercian nuns. According to the Rule of Saint Benoît, their daily life consists of prayer and manual labor. The church is open to visitors. One wing of the monastery accommodates those seeking peace and quiet, alone or in a group. Shop with religious objects, books, CDs, paintings on silk, ceramics, artisan biscuits ...

          Cross the neo-Gothic bridge of 'La Poulie' and follow the beautiful route of the Semois. This will take you to the abbey of Cordemoy or Clairefontaine. You will immediately notice that the style is very reminiscent of Orval Abbey, which was also designed by the same architect, namely Henry Vaes. Typical are the pointed arches that depict the folded hands to pray. The nuns welcome visitors to their community every day.
