Les Jardins du Prieuré Notre-Dame d'Orsan

25 km from La Châtre, we enjoyed an afternoon in Les Jardins du Prieuré Notre-Dame d'Orsan, created at the beginning of the XIIth century.

It has served as a monastery-like institution for men and women, where both the spiritual life, including praying, and working physically were the two main ingredients in their lives.


We liked this discovery a lot and the garden contained a great variety of plants (click at the photos to see them better)!
