Monastic buildings :
Explore the most beautiful ruins of the Landes region! These 18th-century remains bear witness to the monks' final work. Restorations have revealed a simple yet monumental architecture that unfolds along the banks of the Gave d'Oloron river. A staircase descends to an exceptional cryptoporticus, a long underground gallery connected to a landing stage, whose beauty and rarity have made the abbey famous.
