Abbaye Notre-Dame-de- Faise / Privée

This former Cistercian abbey is located in the commune of Artigues-de-Lussac. It is particularly well known for having been gradually restored by the historian Maurice Druon. The abbey was founded in 1137 by the monks of Cadouin Abbey, with the help of Pierre, Count of Castillon. One of the monks' missions, in addition to the usual tasks of providing technical and agricultural assistance to the region's farmers, was to welcome pilgrims on their way to Santiago de Compostela.
