A scenic one hour drive south takes you to the charming village of Sainte-Croix-en-Jarez. This small town, steeped in history, is known for its 13th century Carthusian Monastery, inhabited by Monks for hundreds of years until they were evicted during the French Revolution. The buildings were sold to local families and slowly transformed into a little village untouched by modern life and frozen in time for over 200 years.
Take a guided tour and enter the village through a large stone doorway which leads onto the two squares, Cour des Frères and Cour des Pères. See where the Monks worked and the cells in which they lived. Admire the ancient brown stone structures and explore the underground tunnels that connect the village to the small local stream. Admire the 14th century murals and then head for the delightful bakery, where the smell of fresh bread will make you hunger for a simple country lunch.
