From the remains of the old church where Ronsard is buried to the gardens that the 12th-century canons considered a "paradise on earth," the former monastery has retained its historical, spiritual, and poetic character. Today, it offers a variety of visitor experiences that connect different eras and art forms through the lens of architecture, poetry, and contemporary art. Its eclectic programming, its sensory-enhancing features, and its interactive displays are all invitations to learn, be surprised, and relax, whether with family or friends. The Saint-Cosme Priory is a timeless place, whose forms are constantly evolving.
