The Abbey of La Ferté (also known as the Abbey Palace of La Ferté) is the very first daughter foundation of the famous Cistercian Order from the year 1113. It is located in the idyllic South Burgundy, in the municipality of Saint-Ambreuil. The original medieval abbey was heavily destroyed during the Wars of Religion. The present magnificent building was constructed at the end of the 17th century as a stately abbey palace for the abbot. After the French Revolution, the abbey church was demolished and the building was converted into a private residential castle.
