A listed former abbey nestling in the heart of the Forêts National Park, on the edge of the Champagne region in Upper Burgundy. Today, there remain the hostelry and its farm surrounding the guest house for the noble patrons of the Order. Louis de Bourbon, Duke of Penthièvre, grandson of Louis XIV and Madame de Montespan, frequently came to the abbey to pray to God or to hunt in the vast surrounding forest. The water mill in the distance marks the boundary line between the abbey, its parklands and its gardens. This is where, surrounded by French-style formal gardens, two freshwater springs have been tapped, providing the monks with a large fishpond (44 m x 62 m) and a waterfall. The entire estate, extending over an area of around 7 hectares, is enclosed by an imposing 7-metre-high perimeter wall topped with flat limestone. The Val des Choues stream flows through the roughly 14 hectares of surrounding meadows and feeds the abbey's pond of almost 1 hectare. Elegant orchids, known as “lady’s-slipper orchids”, grow on the edge of the national forest, which completely encircles the estate. Together with the additional communal woodlands, this national forest makes up an untamed, compact forest covering 12,000 hectares. This natural sanctuary completely surrounds the abbey, so that it suffers no disturbance whatsoever. Created in 2019, the new Forêts National Park is intended to protect lowland deciduous forests and now stretches over the entire region. Straddling Burgundy and Champagne, this is the most recent of the eleven French national parks, the first to be located in the northern part of France and the closest to Paris. The Val des Choues abbey and the surrounding forest are classified as a 'core' zone, recognised for their exceptional natural heritage value.
