Former Abbey Church of Saint Benedict

Founded in the 7th century, Saint-Benoît Abbey is a major center of spirituality whose history spans the ages. Rebuilt in the 11th and 12th centuries, the abbey church captivates visitors with the harmony of its Romanesque architecture and the solemnity of its spaces.
Notable features include its elegant bell tower, an ancient tomb, a chapel dedicated to contemplation, and a splendid 13th-century episcopal crosier, a precious work of sacred art.
The surviving convent buildings notably house a chapter house, a meeting place for the monks, preserved in remarkable condition.
