Baume-les-Messieurs
Other Region
Baume-les-Messieurs combines the simplicity of village life to the sense of spirituality of its abbey that inspired the Cluny order, the most influential one of medieval Europe.
The monastery of Balma developed remarkably from the 9th throughout the Middle Ages. It became an imperial abbey under the emperor Frederic Barberousse. The abbey is worth visiting for its architecture, its statues and its chapel.
