http://www.paysnedelamer.fr/rubrique.php3?id_rubrique=65This Benedictine abbey was the second monastic foundation in Vendée after Noirmoutier. It has been through many ups and downs : fires and destruction from the Monks' arrival at the VIIth century to their leaving at the Revolution ; but the abbey also had its glorious hours, notably during the XVIIth century when Mazarin became its last abbot.
Nowadays, this abbey is private and one can only visit the Monks' Calefactory (XIIth century), the Chapter House (XIIIth century) and the Refectory (XVIIth century).
