Former Dominican monastery. The "Jacobins", also called "Dominicans", settled in Cabessut in 1264. After suffering from the religious wars, the monastery was destroyed by fire in 1609 and then sold during the French Revolution and returned to the diocese in 1851.

A place steeped in history: a large part was destroyed by fire, with a ruin that remains, covered in vegetation, while another part in good condition is still in use!
