Saint-Clément

Step inside a 17th-century monastery for a rare glimpse of living tradition: the solemn formation of the Visitation's honorary guard. The Grand Parloir fills with centuries of ritual as nuns in ceremonial dress take their posts. A hushed, timeless moment in one of Nantes' most spiritually resonant spaces.
