Several old works are restored each year by qualified professionals, with the support of the Regional Directorate of Cultural Affairs of Hauts-de-France. The Heritage Fund will present to the public the latest books that have received this special treatment, and future digitization projects, thus allowing to extend the relative sustainability of these fragile historical objects.

It is the old(former) main entrance of the abbey, built in 1632, that contained the meeting rooms of the magistrate, the rooms of justice and the prisons. This monument is also called "Priory" because it touched the apartments of the prior. The whole construction allows to consider him(it) as a real artistic jewel in the taste of Flemish Renaissance.
