Hidden high in the Alpes de Haute Provence in the South of France, the Monastery of Ganagobie is home to 12 Benedictine monks.
In 1992 the community came to this site, the remains of a monastery built in the 10th century. They have overseen its restoration and lead private lives of prayer and work.
