The garden is a given form of nature, entirely created by man. In monasteries, these spaces of nature have in addition to their nourishing or therapeutic virtues, a symbolic significance. In Moyenmoutier, this garden will be replaced little by little, in the XIX century, by the factories of the textile industry. And then, the industrial decline, it is a new garden that will be reborn. Like a lost paradise, in this small square of nature, plants, insects and all kinds of animals, including man, live there and without concern for hierarchy or classification.

About the location

Le jardin de l'abbaye de Moyenmoutier
2 Quai du Rabodeau 88420 Moyenmoutier
  • Vosges
  • Grand Est
On the Route des 3 Abbayes, Moyenmoutier the baroque rises, majestic and elegant, on the banks of the Rabodeau. Founded in 671 by Saint Hydulphe, the "middle monastery" has repeatedly sheltered the learned elite of the Benedictine order. The elegant simplicity of its cathedral-sized church contrasts with exceptional furnishings, including its organ and a set of 16th-century stalls. After being hidden for nearly two centuries by industrial buildings, the facade of the abbey is finally unveiled! Its 4ha of gardens invite relaxation and a new look at these majestic buildings.
Documents of visits for young and old are available at the Tourist Office of the Pays des Abbayes.
