Close to the abbey, the small forest road follows the valley and the stream, passes near the fountain dedicated to Saint Bernard, then enters the woods.

Clairvaux Abbey is a former Cistercian abbey in the commune of Ville-sous-la-Ferté in the Aube department in France. The abbey was founded in 1115 by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, one of the most important figures of the Cistercian order. The abbey was a center of religion, culture and politics in the Middle Ages and the mother of many other monasteries in Europe. The abbey was abolished in 1792 during the French Revolution and converted into a prison, which is still in use today. The abbey is located in a green valley and has an impressive architecture in Romanesque and Gothic style. The abbey is a historic monument and can be visited under a guide.

Statue of Saint Bernard

Highlight • Monument

The statue of Saint Bernard at Clairvaux Abbey is a bronze statue made in 1921 by the French sculptor Paul Landowski. The statue shows Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, the founder of the abbey, in a praying position. The statue stands on a pedestal with an inscription that reads: "A saint Bernard, ses fils" (To Saint Bernard, his sons). The statue is a tribute to the influence and charisma of Bernard, who is considered one of the greatest doctors of the Church and mystics of the Middle Ages.
