Website | EmailThe National Museum of Port-Royal des Champs offers a personal experience of a place that has helped to make France what it is today. The 30-hectare site that once held the abbey of Port-Royal des Champs, founded in 1204 and destroyed in 1710, fostered some of the most influential religious and intellectual thinking of the past centuries. In the 17th century, Pascal lived in a house on the grounds and Racine studied in the school which now holds a museum detailing the historical importance of these grounds covered in greenery, gardens, and dotted with significant structures and ruins.
