The town's landmark is the former abbey with its church from the 8th to 16th centuries. The original building with a west work from the end of the 8th century was probably built under the direction of Angilbert. The organ dates from the 18th century. In the abbey there are sculptures, furniture and paintings to see. The murals in the 16th-century treasury stand out.

A beautiful abbey listed as a historic monument with a rather exceptional history. It deserves a short stop to be admired and visited.
