Lagrasse, located on the banks of the Orbieu, is the old capital of the Corbières region. The place is awarded as one of the most beautiful villages in France, and it is fun to stroll through the streets here. The old town with its Roman arched bridge and the Abbey of Sainte-Marie d’Orbieu are among the highlights in the Cathar country.

Lagrasse Abbey

Highlight • Other

Beautiful old monastery in which monks actually still live. The monastery is divided into two parts: the urban part can be visited (with a small café, entrance fee). And the other one, where the monks live, can also be visited for a donation.
Please note: opening times may vary
The monastery is constantly being renovated according to the old model, but this does not interfere with the visit.
