Since 1990, the Abbey of the Val des Choues opened its doors to the public and converted the buildings having survived the revolution into galleries, exhibitions rooms and museums based on the theme of Hunt and Nature.

The old monks gardens, located downstream of the pool, are now
a beautiful garden.
There is a relaxing and peaceful atmosphere, which calls for a long walk in the garden, whose character is nevertheless simple and a bit austere, as was the monastic life.
The plans of the garden had been inspired by the old lithographs of the Abbey, dating from the 18th century.
This garden won in 1993, the first prize of parks and gardens in Burgundy, which enabled the creation of a second garden, bearings, upstream of this beautiful pool.
