Basilique Saint-Benoît de Fleury

The Abbey of Saint-Benoît was built in the 11th century and still houses a community of monks. The Saint-Benoît basilica can be visited outside of the offices.

Here live 32 monks and on Sundays and public holidays they lead you through the abbey at 15.15.
The compulsory compartment has some treats to offer.

Here are the relics of St. Benedict in the crypt.

Beautiful basilica still occupied today by monks.
