The Abbaye Saint-German can be reached during the "Cadet Roussel" itinerary. A visit to the church is free of charge, there is also the possibility to visit the museum or with a guide for a small fee.
An interesting church, with excavations in the basement and temporary exhibitions inside the church.

Hiking

The site is open from 10 a.m. and can be visited free of charge. Deckchairs are available in the cloister for a shady and quiet break. The museums are worth a visit. You learn a lot about the history of the city, which dates back to at least the 5th century.
The church shows that it has been rebuilt several times. The archaeological crypt located under the forecourt of today's church is very impressive.
You should plan enough time for a visit. It took me almost two hours to get a first overview.
