WHAT'S ON
Throughout the year, Prémontrés Abbey puts on a rich and diverse cultural programme, with exhibitions, concerts, theatre, conferences, themed events, cultural encounters and more.
Since 1964, the abbey's cultural centre organises exhibitions featuring contemporary art and other themes. The cultural centre is known for holding major exhibitions such as "Lights of Crystal", "Charles and Emile Gallé" or more recently "Gardens Between Dream and Reality". It also promotes artists from the Grand Est Region. Hundreds of painters, sculptors, visual artists and photographers have exhibited their creations here. The works of Claude Goutin, Isabelle Adelus and Pierre Gangloff have all occupied the historical rooms of the monument.
