Clairmont Abbey in Olivet was founded in the 12th century. It retains a large proportion of its original buildings, which are listed as Historic Monuments.

Founded in 1152 by Bernard of Clairvaux amidst a landscape of woods and ponds, Clairmont or Clermont Abbey is a prime example of a Cistercian settlement. From the 12th to the 15th century, Clairmont Abbey served as the burial place for the lords of Laval. It retains a large part of its original buildings, which are listed as Historic Monuments: the impressively large abbey church, the cellar and the refectory of the lay brothers, and the gatehouse. Clairmont Abbey is open to visitors every day except Mondays from 2 pm to 6 pm It is possible to visit the abbey outside normal opening hours for groups of at least four people by calling 06 08 72 48 63.
