An old monastery to see and perhaps to pray. The outdoor architecture is very typical ( a mix of different influences) and the indoor one is very rich decorated by very old paintings ( some from the 17th century who have been restored) and statues. There is too an ancient and very rare seraphic cross of the Christ made of stone ( a winged Christ!) near the entry ( a copy is exposed at the car park in face of the monastery).There are still a few franciscan priests. You can so see a cross of San Damiano ( the cross of Saint Francis) like the original one in Assisi, Italia. The altar is rich with an ancient golden painted wall with a lot of decorations (saints, little angels,...) and at the top a beautiful and tall statue of the holy virgin dressed in gold.

Beautiful, old monastery covered in murals. It has presence. Panoramic views of Nice from the gardens. We found one Boney and hungry cat in the gardens, which we fed- tried to get hold of an animal shelter but they seemed to be too busy for one cat unfortunately:/
