Presentation

The Centre des monuments nationaux offers your film crews access to a unique collection of monuments whose diversity reflects the richness of France's heritage.

Located in the heart of the Var region, the Cistercian abbey of Le Thoronet is set in an exceptionally well-preserved and authentic green setting, less than fifteen minutes from the Le Luc motorway exit. The purity of its proportions, the rigour of its architecture and the spirit that reigns there give Le Thoronet Abbey a profound and inspiring beauty. These intrinsic qualities, for which the monument is so famous, make it an ideal location in which to shoot films, series, documentaries, advertisements and your own photo shoots.
