Norman Abbey in Seine-Maritime. It was built in 649 and the work was not completed until the 18th century. Of Romanesque and Gothic construction, it is inhabited by Benedictine monks, it deserves to be seen!

The abbey is still inhabited by Benedictine monks. Please remain calm on the premises. Guided tours take place at 3:00 p.m., 3:30 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. Dogs are allowed on a leash. In the boutique you can buy all kinds of products that are produced in the abbey, e.g. honey, beer, beeswax products. There is also a model worth seeing that shows the original architecture of the abbey grounds. The path to the abbey is beautiful along the renatured Fontenelle river, which used to be a mill stream.

Very beautiful abbey

This is a very interesting church. Started as a romanic church (first half close to the entrance) and was extended with a gothic style (starts around the altar where you can see that the romanic arches where used to super-impose gothic arches). Notice also the collection of mostly stone statues of saints (and the Archangel Michael). Most of them have tags identifying the saints.

Dogs are allowed

His chime is still working! The Saint-Wandrille abbey, formerly the Fontenelle abbey, is a Benedictine abbey of the Solesmes congregation located in the town of Rives-en-Seine, former town of Saint-Wandrille-Rançon, in the Seine-Maritime department, in Normandy (France). Founded in 649, the abbey has had a long history marked by three major periods of looting and destruction: those linked to the incursions of the Vikings, then those generated by the wars of religion, and finally those following the French Revolution. It is still today an abbey of Benedictine monks. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbaye_Saint-Wandrille_de_Fontenelle
