Abbaye Notre-Dame de Senanque

Crowded and small, located in a small, hot, but picturesque valley. Parking is a challenge. Great museum shop. The tour features an augmented reality pad, showing present and past life at the monastery. Worth a visit, if only for a picture of the small lavender field.

Beautiful and peaceful place in the middle of the countryside. We were here on 1st August and there was lots of lavender on the roadway in. The lavender right in front of the abbey was newly grown so it wasn’t that big burst of purple but it was still beautiful. Definitely worth a visit, and the shop was lovely too. Drive right in as there’s a car park. Arrive early- we were there at 9am and there was hardly anyone there.
