It's a very nice and pretty Monastery. Even in September /October it's quite the sight - maybe not the most exciting if walking through cities, sightseeing or just architecture isn't your thing... Though I found it to be very cool. Especially from the outside where the park like surroundings are quite beautiful. When walking through the inner city of Ystad it should definitely be visited :D

A beautiful abbey, originally built in the 13th century, but extensively remodelled since then. Unfortunately, only two ranges of the original building remain. In their place, gorgeous gardens have been (re-)planted, including a rose garden and a herb garden. Well worth a visit when you're in beautiful Ystad.

Cette abbaye se situe un peu à l’écart de la vielle ville. Les abords extérieurs et le petit parc / cloître se visitent librement et sont bien insérés dans l’environnement. La visite intérieure est payante et ne propose pas grand chose de passionnant. Au rez-de-chaussée une exposition moderne sur la nature ne permet pas de réellement comprendre ce lieu chargé d’histoire. L’étage est également aménagé mais sur le thème monacal. Finalement c’est La Chapelle qui est la plus intéressante et la plus authentique, un peu à part, aménagée simplement et humblement. Une visite qui coûte bien cher pour ce qu’on y voit.

Haven't been inside the Abbey but the area outside was lovely by the pond and surrounded by the medieval buildings. A lot of bird poo to watch out for.

W miarę interesujący klasztor / opactwo, ciężko oczekiwać czegoś więcej po tego typu obiekcie historycznym. Kupiłem bilet łączony z tym do Muzeum Sztuki Nowoczesnej, które znajdowało się nieopodal, bo wtedy wychodzi taniej. W klasztorze znajduje się sala na archeologiczne elementy, nawa do zwiedzania (chyba że akurat trwa msza) oraz na piętrze była jakaś wystawa wzornictwa i sztuki materiałowej. Polecam głównie dla historyków i archeologów.

Such a nice place for sitting or walking around. Nearby there is a coffee place and a pretty cozy garden where you can enjoy the view and relax.
