Fondée/Restaurée 1920

Origine

Founded at Ste Anne d’Auray in 1920 under the name N.D. de Bonne-Garde; erected as a priory in 1921 (8 December); transferred to Campénéac in 1953 with the name La Joie Notre-Dame

Histoire

The community was established at Ste Anne d’Auray in buildings which they did not own. In addition they could not easily be adapted to monastic life and the terrain was not suited for cultivation, so life there was very difficult. The father immediate and the community of Timadeuc purchased a property, the castle of Ville Aubert with a large farm, in the same diocese and the transfer was authorized by the Definitory on 4 May 1947.
A monastery was constructed, partly by adapting the castle, and a part entirely new, and on 30 September 1953 the community transferred there. The transfer was an opportune moment to revive the former title La Joie Notre Dame, “Gaudium Dominae Nostrae” of Hennebont.
