A word about the place of the exhibition: abbey Cistercian Escaladieu

After an initial installation on the slopes of the Tourmalet in 1142 the monks choose their final location in the valley Arros more hospitable (with trout and eels). Construction of Abbey Escaladieu completed in 1160.
Very successful from the twelfth to fourteenth century the abbey was the burial place of the counts of Bigorre. It was a stop on the Santiago pilgrimage. Its architecture and outdoor spaces are witnessing today the severity of Cistercian art maintainable.
Summer many events (speech and cultural) occupy the premises.
