The Hermitage of Saint-Rouin is a modern chapel built on the site of an ancient hermitage where Saint-Rouin, founder of the Beaulieu-en-Argonne abbey, lived in the 7th century. The chapel, designed by the architect and Dominican friar L.-B. Rayssiguier, is a striking example of concrete architecture with geometric shapes and colorful stained glass windows. You can admire the minimalist interior and the altar made of sandstone blocks, as well as the 17th century altarpiece of the Assumption located in the enclosure. The Hermitage of Saint-Rouin is a place of pilgrimage and celebration every year on September 17, the feast day of Saint-Rouin. You can also enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding forest and the panoramic views from the hilltop. The Hermitage of Saint-Rouin is a hidden gem that will inspire you with its history and art.

This viewpoint offers a panoramic view of the village of Passavant-en-Argonne, famous for its pottery and half-timbered houses. You can follow the signs to “Viewpoint” and enjoy the natural beauty of the area. The best time to visit is spring or fall, when the colors are more vibrant.

Built between 1954 and 1961, the Saint-Rouin hermitage was erected in the heart of the Argonne forest according to plans drawn up by Father Rayssiguier, Dominican, disciple of Le Corbusier and co-author of the Vence chapel.

Attractive small town with a pretty town hall. Challengingly located at a low elevation, so while fighting your way up the mountain you have plenty of time for sightseeing 😉

Quiet path between the ponds. The place is really pretty.
