ANCIEN COUVENT DE LA BAUMETTE
Visit in a former convent full of history, with residence, chapel, cloister and gardens, in Angers.
Founded in 1452 by King René, the former convent of La Baumette majestically overlooks the Maine River. A place steeped in history, where monks and thinkers came and went, it retains a peaceful atmosphere conducive to contemplation. Gothic architecture blends with more recent additions, offering a unique testimony to the past. The view of the river from the garden is breathtaking. Today, this privately-owned site is open to visitors on an occasional basis, gradually revealing its secrets.
