‘Le Chant de l’eau’ exhibition at L’Escaladieu in October 2026
Discover the exhibition ‘Le Chant de l’eau’ at Escaladieu Abbey
In autumn 2026, make the most of your stay in the Hautes-Pyrénées to discover The Song of Water, an exhibition of contemporary art on display at the Abbaye de l’Escaladieu. Set in a setting steeped in history, this exhibition invites visitors to take a fresh look at water, its movements, its presence in landscapes and the connections it has with our environment.
Through the works of several contemporary artists, water becomes a true source of inspiration. By turns calm, flowing, powerful or fragile, it is depicted in various forms and enables us to explore themes linked to nature, landscapes and the way we perceive the elements around us. A tour that thus combines culture, heritage and artistic exploration.
A cultural outing to go on in October 2026
The exhibition is open until 1 November 2026, making it a lovely idea for a day out during a stay in the Hautes-Pyrénées in October or during the All Saints’ Day holidays. The autumn season also lends a special atmosphere to the area around the abbey, when the foliage begins to change colour and the Pyrenean landscapes take on their late-season hues.
The visit can easily be incorporated into a day spent exploring the region. It is suitable for both contemporary art enthusiasts and visitors who are simply curious to discover a heritage site with a difference. The interplay between the contemporary artworks and the abbey’s historic architecture gives the exhibition a unique dimension and allows visitors to fully appreciate the building.
Escaladieu Abbey, a place steeped in history
Located in Bonnemazon, in the Hautes-Pyrénées, the Escaladieu Abbey is in itself a fascinating stop-off during a visit to the region. Its architecture, its various areas and its natural surroundings provide a peaceful setting in which to take the time to explore the local heritage.
A visit to the exhibition thus provides an opportunity to explore this historic monument and its surroundings as well. Contemporary art and heritage come together along the route, allowing visitors to discover the artworks in a setting very different from that of a traditional museum.
An activity combining nature and culture in the Hautes-Pyrénées
Choose an exhibition ‘Le Chant de l’eau’ at the Escaladieu in October 2026, …it’s also about enjoying a variety of activities during your stay. After a hike, a stroll through the Pyrenean countryside or a day spent in the great outdoors, this visit offers a cultural interlude and allows you to discover another side to the region.
The theme of water resonates particularly strongly with the landscapes of the Pyrenees, which have been shaped by rivers, torrents and the terrain. The exhibition builds on this connection with nature through the artists’ perspectives and invites everyone to look at an element we encounter every day in our environment in a new light.
Make the most of the exhibition whilst staying at Les Cabanes du Lizon

Situated in Bernadets-Dessus, they offer the chance to enjoy a change of scenery in the heart of the Hautes-Pyrénées and to easily combine unique accommodation, cultural experiences and outdoor activities.

We spent a magical night at Les Cabanes du Lizon, in La Grange, and everything was perfect! We were completely charmed by the cosy atmosphere, the meticulous decor and the attention to detail. We loved the fact that everything was locally sourced, which gave the place even more authenticity. Special mention must go to the Nordic bath, a real moment of relaxation under the stars, and the view of horses and the Pyrenees the next morning! And what can I say about Denis, a top host, welcoming and passionate. Thank you for this timeless interlude, we'll be back and will be delighted to recommend it! 🥰
A warm, peaceful place to unwind. We recommend it and will return without hesitation.
Denis is a very friendly host, full of local recommendations and with a great sense of welcome. The accommodation is well thought out and furnished, very comfortable and the breakfasts are delicious! I can't recommend it highly enough!
