Orsan Priory (French: Prieuré d'Orsan), alternatively the Priory of Our Lady of Orsan (French: Prieuré Notre-Dame d'Orsan), is a former nunnery belonging to the Order of Fontevraud, located in the Loire Valley, in Maisonnais, Cher, France. It was founded at the beginning of the 12th century by Robert of Arbrissel and dissolved in the French Revolution. It is now (2021) a privately owned hotel with attached traditional monastic gardens created in the 1990s.
The original monastic structures were officially designated as French historic monuments on March 27, 1926.[1]
