The palace is located in the center of Fé camp. The luxurious building impresses everyone. The distillery-palace was built in Neo-Gothic and Neo-Renaissance styles for Alexandre Le Grand, an entrepreneur who recreated an alcoholic herbal liqueur created by a Benedictine monk. The famous liqueur is produced only in this place and has been exported all over the world for over 100 years. The Benedictine Palace consists of three zones: the distillery, which produces the famous liquor; Le Grand's collection of religious works from the 15th and 16th centuries, which is exhibited in the same way as at the end of the 19th century; gallery of modern art. External originality well matches the internal architecture. The Le Grand family's holdings are rich and varied, from old books to sculptures, paintings and even wrought iron. The library, located in the Gothic hall, includes more than a thousand volumes, mainly from the Fé camp Abbey.
In one of the rooms there is a unique collection of keys (simple and elaborate, large and small) that make up the original collection, founded in the 14th century and later acquired by Alexandre Le Grand. Tours and tastings (together cost 26 euros) are held in French and English, but there are booklets in Russian. The palace has a tasting bar and a boutique where you can buy not only liquor.
