    A journey through time in the Jouarre crypt, a unique Merovingian jewel in Europe!
    Dating from the 7th century AD, the crypt is one of the oldest in Europe. It was built during the second half of the 7th century, during the Merovingian era, at the request of Bishop Agilbert under the reign of Clotaire III. The Crypt contains the tombs of the founding family of the Abbey of Notre Dame de Jouarre, founded around 635.


    The Merovingian sculpture in the crypt rests on two rows of three Gallo-Roman columns, topped by magnificent Merovingian capitals in white marble.

    So come to Jouarre to discover the history of a crypt reflecting the prosperous era of the village!
