The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Les arceaux du cloître sont les seuls vestiges restants. L'arc se compose de trois tores reposant sur des chapiteaux presque tous à feuilles de chêne. Les bases sont enterrées pour la plupart. Cet ensemble est englobé dans des constructions. Quatre arcatures forment retour le long d'un mur qui sert de clôture.

The arcades of the cloister are the only remaining vestiges. The arch is composed of three tori resting on capitals almost all with oak leaves. The bases are buried for the most part. This ensemble is enclosed within constructions. Four arcatures form a return along a wall which serves as a closure.
