ABBAYE CISTERCIENNE DE BON-REPOS
The Abbey of Bon Repos is set in the heart of the beautiful countryside of central Brittany, alongside the Nantes Brest Canal. The name, when translated means 'Good Rest' and the legend says that after a tiring day hunting in the Quénécan Forest back in 1184, the founder of the abbey, Viscount Alain III de Rohan fell asleep in this spot. It was here that the Virgin Mary appeared in his sleep and asked him to found an abbey in that place.
