- Description
- The Priory of Vausse was founded at the beginning of the 13th century as a dependency of the Abbey of Val des Choues. During the French Revolution, the Priory was sold and converted into an earthenware manufactory (www.cister.net/abbayes/fr/133/vausse). Supported by the “Vausse Animation” Association, the private owner preserves the heritage of the Priory and hosts musical or theatrical events, exhibitions and guided tours.
