Convent built by John II at the beginning of the 14th century with a cloister with beautiful galleries, the hall of the chauffoir and the chapter house.
This convent was founded by Jean II at the beginning of the 14th century, when Crémieu was one of the favourite residences of the Dauphins. The priory welcomes hermits of Saint Augustine. The conventual buildings house a kitchen with a monumental fireplace, the monks' living quarters, a chapter house and a refectory. The cloister, a place of meditation, has beautiful galleries under a slate roof. Note the heart, symbol of the Augustinians. Two rooms can be visited: the chauffoir room and the chapter house.

magnifique
Le cloître est de toute beauté, sans parler de l'intégration du couvent dans les remparts de Crémieu, avec ses toits en lauze supportant une charge de 400 kgs / m2. Les Augustins sont un trésor au coeur de cette belle cité médiévale vivante et animée de Cémieu, dont je me réjouis de découvrir les trésors. N'hesitez pas à monter sur la colline St Hippolyte, pour avoir une vue sublime sur les différents chateaux (delphinal, montiracle, bienassis, hautepierre ), remparts, construction et plonger dans l'histoire de ce lieu remarquable !
