Baume-les-Messieurs is one of the jewels of Franche-Comté. A visit to this charming little town in the Comté region really gives the impression of descending into a hidden valley, the existence of which had, until now, been kept a secret.

The beauty of the surroundings is immediately apparent. It is a magical place, with a splendid medieval abbey housing a Flemish altarpiece decorated with gold leaf. Baume-les-Messieurs is surrounded by natural attractions, such as the Tuff Waterfall and the Baume Caves.
