Irish monks founded an abbey here almost 1500 years ago. This makes Marmoutier one of the oldest starting points for the Christianization of the old Celtic country.

Very old church with a real Silbermann organ. The remains of a church from the Merovingian period (around 700 AD) can be found in the crypt.
