A tower and a beautiful gate surmounted by a bretèche remain from the former priory.

One can admire the priory of the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Chaffre in Le Monastier. The Jesuits of Puy took over from the Benedictines at the beginning of the 17th century. You can see the Romanesque church (12th century), open to worship and visit, with the choir window and its modillions, and the ten original capitals reinstated by the Jesuits during the reconstruction of the building in the 17th century. The bell tower and the first bays of the nave are later. A tower and a beautiful 15th century door surmounted by its bretèche remain from the old priory.

Historique !
Le quartier historique de la ville de Lamastre. Avant la Révolution Française, il y avait trois paroisses : Lamastre, Retourtour et Macheville, qui ont été réunies à la révolution. Aujourd'hui un quartier fait de vielles pierres (les maisons datent en moyenne du 18e siècle, à ne pas rater l'église Saint DOMNIN du 10e siècle et la maison des "Saints Os" où repose les dépouilles de plusieurs prêtres martyrs des Guerres de Religion. Le quartier est une des étape du jeu de piste "Lamastre en lumière" proposé par l'Office de Tourisme. On y trouve également l’excellent restaurant "Chez Germaine" (à découvrir aussi dans ce guide)
