    The Abbey Where It All Began

    In 1098, a group of monks seeking a stricter life founded Cîteaux Abbey. Within 50 years, they'd established over 500 daughter abbeys across Europe and begun the most systematic study of terroir in human history. Today, monks still live here - and they still make cheese using medieval techniques.
