Fontenay ist eine großartige Anlage. Wir hatten das Glück, in der Kirche und im Dormitorium
fast alleine zu sein und konnten diese beindruckenden Räume in einer wohltuenden Stille
erleben.

La restauration magnifique qu’ont fait les propriétaires : c’est l’œuvre de plusieurs générations mais quel bonheur d’avoir conservé ce beau patrimoine : MERCI !

Servizio comodo, nessun problema di pagamento ed ingresso rapido all'Abbazia di Fontenay. Consigliato.

Nous avons fait la visite avec une guide passionnée de l'histoire de l'Abbaye.
Très beau site, rénové avec goût.
