Cloister of Cadouin
~ Classified a Historical Monument ~
Cliché Semitour Périgord / Jean Grelet
With its 4 galleries and 26 rows of Gothic diagonal ribs, its remarkable clerestory openings, its doors and sculptures, the cloister of Cadouin really is a masterpiece
of Gothic art (15th and 16th centuries).
The abbey church is rather austere and thus perfectly reflects the Cistercian 12th century spirituality.
The Museum evokes 8-centuries of pilgrimage and religious fervour linked with a relic that has long been considered as
the Holy Shroud to have enveloped the head of the Christ.
During Easter holidays and between 10 July and 25 August
workshops for children on the theme of calligraphy and illumination.
