Mont-Laurent (French pronunciation: [mɔ̃ loʁɑ̃]) is a commune in the Ardennes department in northern France. The chateau mont-laurent in the town was occupied by members of a religious cult known as “les enfant de dieux” or “the children of God” during the early nineties. They had between thirty and fifty members living there at different points.
