What is Bonnevaux?
The home of The World Community for Christian Meditation. A core community, interns and volunteers will welcome you to share in their daily life and for retreats.

Meditation and Community
The Abbey is home to the Bonnevaux core community and long-term residents who live in the spirit of the Rule of St Benedict – a daily rhythm of prayer, work and study, hospitality, solitude and friendship. A place of great natural beauty with a spiritual energy nurtured by 1500 years of contemplation
Visit Bonnevaux
Bonnevaux is located outside of Poitiers. We are a renovated, secluded abbey in the French countryside. Only a 90 minute train ride from Paris or a quick 20 minute drive from the nearby airport, Bonnevaux is perfectly situated where convenience and seclusion meet.
