Soligny-la-Trappe - Abbaye Notre Dame de la Trappe
|
|
King James II and VII first visited this abbey in November 1690. Subsequently he made an annual retreat there. His wife Queen Mary Beatrice visted the abbey in May 1696. The abbey was almost totally destroyed during the French Revolution; the present abbey was built in the nineteenth century. The thirteenth century guest house is the only ancient building.
