Accompanied by an interpreter, you'll discover the church and its 19th-century trompe l'oeil decorations, then stroll through the cloister for an immersion in the landscapes of medieval Savoy, thanks to the 15th-century murals. Take advantage of the building's lighting to admire every detail of its architecture.
