Description
This Cistercian abbey reserved for women was founded in 1275 by Blanche de Champagne, who was the mother of Duke John II, on a field separate from the parish of Languidic. In 1512, a fire entirely destroyed the abbey. The reconstruction of the 17th century, carried out in 1693, made it possible to preserve the front door, abbey housing and a service building. The main part, located to the north, including the entrance to the community, is distinguished by its slight projection in the center, surmounted by a triangular pediment. The buildings located in the north and east were completed by a third wing in the south in the 19th century. All buildings were sold during the Revolution; In 1825, they hosted a forge and, since 1920, the Haras service installed boxes there for horses on the ground floor.
