Abbey of Our Lady of Fontevraud was a monastery founded in 1101. The English king Henry II, his wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, and their son, King Richard the Lionheart, were all buried here at the end of the 12th century. It was seized and disestablished as a monastery during the French Revolution. The complex of monastic buildings served as a prison from 1804 to 1963. Since 1975, it has hosted a cultural centre, the Centre Culturel de l'Ouest.
Machine 1 is directly at the entrance, no ticket need to reach it. Cost 1 euro and 5 cent for each. Designs all have a beaded border with 'Fontevraud L'Abbaye Royale'.
