Knights Templar Commandery

People occupied the commandery turned hospital facility for eight centuries straight. The current buildings, which have changed over the course of time, are assembled around a large rectangular courtyard decorated with 13th-century murals where the tithe storehouse, dovecote, commander’s quarters and Sainte-Anne chapel are located.

Its rarity saw it added to the French supplementary historic monument list in 1932 and classed as a Historic Monument in 1994. Nowadays, the site enjoys a considerable amount of public interest.

The commandery is also home to a medieval garden that was recreated in 1993 in partnership with the Yves Rocher Foundation. This 4,000 m² space comprises four square gardens with different themes, including a kitchen garden, cutting garden, medicinal garden and specialised plants.
