A very beautiful abbey!

It was founded by the future Saint Riquier in 625, on a spring, the object of a very ancient pagan cult. The abbey became royal in 632 thanks to the protection granted to it by Dagobert I. It was Charlemagne himself who entrusted his son-in-law, Angilbert, with the construction of a new and vast abbey using the finest materials, thus forging a model of religious architecture for ecclesiastical buildings in the West. Thanks to a library that, over the centuries, became one of the most important in Europe, and a scriptorium active in the creation and dissemination of the Caroline minuscule, the abbey played a significant role in the preservation and transmission of knowledge until the end of the 12th century. A jewel of Gothic architecture, the Abbey has suffered numerous destructions due to fires and looting, but remains today one of the most beautiful buildings in France, notably thanks to the work carried out by Charles d'Aligre in the 17th century.

Saint-Riquier Abbey is a former Benedictine monastery founded in the 7th century. It is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture and a cultural center that hosts exhibitions, concerts and workshops. You can discover the gardens, the cloister, the library and the abbey museum, as well as the magnificent facade, choir and transept of the abbey church.

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

A few choices for food and drink but you can sit in the quaint village square with the Abbey on one side and watch the world flow by.
