The Romance monastery, completed at the 11th century, is located at the western north of the rock. It presents a similarity with the Gothic monastery: the various rooms are superimposed. At the top, the dormitory of the monks which shelters a bookshop. Just below the promenade of the monks is. And deeper still the room of the North wind, dark and cold which owes its name with the wind which crossed it.
