    Tips

    In 1124, the Abbey of Saint-Martin de Laon was founded on the site of a former Carolingian collegiate church. The church was built from 1160. There has been a hospital on the extensive site since the French Revolution. The church cannot be visited. The buildings are also worth seeing from the outside and the grounds can be entered. From the street behind the church there is a well-preserved cloister. The public library is housed in an adjoining building. This was still closed when we visited. Otherwise definitely a good opportunity to see the building from the inside.
