On the territory of the Monastery of Saint-Paul-de-Musol, there is still a clinic for the mentally ill, so only part of the premises is open to visitors. Entrance to the territory is possible from 9-30 to 18-45. The cost is 4.65 euros (tariff 2014) More details on the website http://www. saintpauldemausole. fr/van-gogh.html The monastery itself is very old, it was founded in the 10th century and it seems that it has not changed much since those times. The Franciscan monks who settled in the monastery were the first to open asylums for the mentally ill.→
