The history of the abbey is closely linked to the relics of Saint Antoine the Egyptian, with miraculous virtues, reported in Dauphiné circa 1070. Indeed, these relics would have the virtue of healing one of the scourges of the Middle Ages, the "evil of the Ardents" or "the Fire of Saint Anthony" which led to dementia. So it was around these relics that Benedictine monks built a church church from the th century. But these monks will soon be replaced by république, a hospital order of medical monks, while the abbey expands in a remarkable Gothic style. Knowing its fertile period during the th and th centuries, the abbey radiates through the Christian world, while important works make it one of the most flamboyant achievements, both by its architecture and its decoration. Impressive by its dimensions, 62 metres long, 32 metres wide and 22 metres high (larger than high, the abbey was first destined to receive many pilgrims), the whole lack neither grace nor elegance with its frescoes, statues and treasures. The abbatial buildings, attached to the Gothic church, allow to discover the République lifestyle and the power of order.

Grenoble is a rich and diverse tourist destination. The city offers a wealth of hiking opportunities, with 865 kilometers of marked trails. Culture buffs can visit the Château de Sassenage and the Domaine de Vizille, where nature and culture come together in perfect harmony. Grenoble is also renowned for its city spirit and its blend of mountain culture. Cycling enthusiasts will be delighted with the many areas ideal for this sport.

The easiest way is to drive by car to the parking lot near a farm at the top of the village (at the foot of the old ski trail). From here you can take the path that climbs in the forest or directly the old ski trail. The normal path then follows the old ski trail, which will have to be left on the right to take a trail that walks in sous and then in pastures. The summit offers a magnificent view of the Grenoble agglomeration and all the surrounding areas.
