As veneration of his relics grew, a basilica was built. A community of monks settled there, and canons replaced them in the 9th century. Following the damage caused by Norman attacks and the fire of 999, Charles the Bald began reconstruction, and Robert the Pious completed the Romanesque church with its crypt housing the relics of Saint Aignan. This church was consecrated on June 14, 1029.
We will soon celebrate its millennium.
