The abbey’s treasure, now almost extinct, cannot be restored. It was therefore envisaged to present in the treasure room – in the museographic sense of the term – an evocation of past riches through the concept of “treasures of memories”.
Until the Revolution, the Maubuisson Abbey’s Treasury Room contained the Abbey’s most precious possessions: objects of worship, reliquaries, priestly vestments, tis­sus… some of which may have been offered by royal or noble families.
The two old cupboards, arranged in windows, contain pieces evoking the foundation of the abbey and religious life on the one hand, objects of the daily life of the nuns on the other hand, from the archaeological excavations carried out on the site. Religious sculptures recall the figures of faith, objects of devotion.

À propos du lieu

Abbaye de Maubuisson
Avenue Richard-de-Tour 95310 Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône
  • Val-d'Oise
  • Île-de-France
Of this former Cistercian abbey of women (Notre-Dame-La-Royale), founded by Blanche de Castille, remain the barn (building with impressive volume) and part of the square claustral (chapter room, parlor, room of nuns and latrines). The abbey rooms are vaulted with warheads, decorated with stained-glass windows and glazed terracotta green and yellow. The 10-hectare park features archaeological remains and ancient water works. Since 2001, the medieval abbey of Maubuisson is dedicated to the visual and visual arts, connected with the architectural heritage. This redefinition of the abbey as a contemporary art site raises the question of the articulation between architectural heritage and artistic creation.
