Our history

Noble stone and Precious Blood, the abbey church of the great pilgrimage. Anchored on its plateau in the Pays de Caux, the long abbey nave raises the mast of its lantern tower. Fécamp, a marvel of Gothic architecture. Don't be surprised by the welcome you receive from the classical façade. Beneath the high ribbed vaults, the grand history of art and faith unfolds. Enchanted by the mystical fervor that inspired the builders of the Middle Ages, you will ascend the nave and discover the treasures bequeathed over the centuries: the 15th-century splendor of the Dormition of the Virgin group, the Renaissance beauty of the twisted columns of the ambulatory, the Baroque crowning of the high altar's baldachin, and... Romanesque, or even earlier, history. And when, after the year 1000, the monks rebuilt the abbey, God sent them a sign: the miraculous gift of the Precious Blood of his Son . The most holy relic has since been kept in a tabernacle of the sanctuary which was a major place of pilgrimage, which certainly had to give up its monastery to the city, but whose choir continues to beat, faithful to its religious vocation.
