The abbey was founded on the shores of Lac Memphrémagog in 1912 by a community of monks from Europe. The bell tower, completed in 1962, is a notable landmark in the region. The monastery is open to visitors, who can enjoy a guided tour, go apple picking and purchase products that the community crafts to support itself, including cheese, cider, fruit compotes and CDs of sacred music recorded by the monks.
