Valsery Abbey

Whatever buildings remained of the abbey after the Revolution, when all monastic houses in France were suppressed, were ruined during World War I and abandoned.

The only walls still standing belong to the dormitories of the canons and the chapter house, which is the focus of the site with its polychrome decoration and floor tiling.

The remains of the abbey church and cloister were located during the first surveys carried out in the late 1990s.

The abbey owned a town house or hostel in Soissons, of which only the cellars remain today.

Since April 2013, volunteers have been meeting two Saturdays a month to restore the site and organize visits.
