블래크빌 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

I loved it, it's a shame that once we got to 500m from the ferry we had to make a big detour by road to take the Quellebeuf ferry to get to Pont Audemer... but I'd do it again

The Abbaye Saint-Pierre et Saint-Wandrille de Fontenelle is a historic Benedictine abbey located in Saint-Wandrille-Rançon. Founded in 649 by Saint Wandrille, the abbey is one of the oldest abbeys in France. It has a rich history that continues to the present day, despite several periods of destruction and rebuilding.

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!

Very nice varied path along the crystal clear Fontenelle. The path leads from the abbey to Caudebec. Dogs are allowed on a leash, legacies must be removed. Poop bags and rubbish bins only at the entrance on the Abbey side. Dogs can enter the water in many places.

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.

Caudebec-en-Caux is a very beautiful town with a rich cultural heritage. A flowery town in Normandy that impresses with its architecture.

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.
