chartreuse de villeneuve lez avignon印象
-
Not much to report, but interesting insight into life in earlier times. Appeared to be run on the basis of indifference to potential visitors. Never mind it was interesting.
-
This is a lovely way to kill a couple of hours. Really lovely building, very atmospheric. You could almost feel the monks of old walking through the rooms. Worthwhile.
-
We really enjoyed this interesting tour which fortunately had an excellent audio guide in many different languages (our group used them in French, English and Polish) to interpret and explain the displays. A very peaceful place and well worth a visit.
-
Enjoyed the calm, the little gardens, and especially the "prisoners" rooms. Villeneuve is a lovely "suburb" of Avignon with many lovely old houses and quaint streets, and quite walkable from Avignon. The combined entrance fee with Fort St Andre is a good deal.
-
Interesting site with great explanations in multiple languages - unusual in France. Gives life to a past era and the site is v well maintained. Would be tough if unsure on feet or in wheelchair.

It's beginnings date back to Pope Innocent VI around 1352. There is a nice walking circuit outlined which allows one to explore and soak up the history. (Lots of reading if you opt for reading boards placed here and there). Some has been very nicely restored and there are beautiful frescoes also being restored. There is also a Cafe/Restaurant on the premises for eats or refreshment. An interesting place to reflect on a time gone by.

-lots of panels explaining the history of the place and the daily practices of the monks living in the chartreuse- well maintained area- the memory of the christian character of the place is respected- has a gorgeous restaurant "jardin d'été" at the end of the visit with outside seatings in the middle of the trees and garden. with beautiful menu too and excellent service. - same entrance fees as everywhere (around 5 euros/pax)

This is a great insight into the history of a monastery (although it helps a lot if you can read French), the site is quite large and you can spend quite a bit of time wandering around it. Particularly nice are the enclosed gardens where you can sit and relax (don't miss the scented garden, tucked away at the far end).

Spend a day exploring Villeneuve les Avignon, you will enjoy the ambiance. This old monastery is a peaceful reflection on a time gone by.

The Chartreuse is very sprawling with interesting nooks and crannies. There are a few restored rooms of monks that made us imagine what life would be like. You also had to wonder where the junior monks stayed.It was a welcome change from seeing ruined castles and over top palaces.
