The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Près de l'église subsiste un édifice claustral, salle capitulaire ou réfectoire. Cette salle est voûtée en berceau brisé. A quelques mètres à l'est de ce bâtiment se trouve la chapelle de Caseneuve. Son plan est celui d'une nef de deux travées voûtées en berceau. Cette chapelle fut construite vers 1115. Son abside forme l'angle de l'enceinte monacale et a servi de base à une tour de défense montée au 14e siècle.

Near the church subsists a claustral building, chapter house or refectory. This hall is vaulted with a broken barrel vault. A few metres to the east of this building is the chapel of Caseneuve. Its plan is that of a nave of two bays vaulted in barrel vault. This chapel was built around 1115. Its chevet forms the angle of the monastic enclosure and served as the base for a defensive tower erected in the 14th century.
