ETIVAL CLAIREFONTAINE
ABBEY OF ETIVAL CLAIREFONTAINE
Description
"On the 3 abbeys road in Etival, the Roman abbey rises in all its beauty on the banks of the Valdange river.
When it became an important abbey of the Prémontré Order in 1147, Etival had already crossed the paths of important figures like Saint Odile or Saint-Richarde, Empress and queen of France.
Having crossed the threshold of the 18th century facade, you will be surprised to discover a beautiful roman abbey church, enriched by architectural evolution throughout the centuries: roman columns, gothic choir, choir stalls from the 18th century, cloister garden and fortifications...
Etival Abbey is open all year from 10:00 to 17:00
