Nice to experience the monks service on a Sunday morning.

Beautiful singing. Outside of time!
Six euros gets you into cloisters! But you can go anywhere else for free. Lovely little village too!
Free entrance, no need to enter any queue on the right building.
Picturesque village with many half-timbered houses, very pleasant to visit. The abbey has interesting architecture and a relaxing feeling about it. The church is very plain and cool on a hot day.
Lovely village with half timbered houses and gardens full of flowers. The old abbey dating back to 9th century has close links with Canterbury England. Lots of history and peaceful gardens for contemplation. The eglise in the village with modern stained glass windows is a must-see
A calm, serene place with an extensive abbey and a magniificent tower. It is in a beautiful setting enclosed by a lovely stone wall with a twin-towered entrance. Parts are still in use and part is being restored. Well worth visiting both the abbey and the village
Visited the abbey several times in the past years. It is a beautiful place. Last time (in 2018) we got a tour in the abbey church by one of the monks. It was very interesting. The museum shop has moved in another building. The monks sell self-manufactured tableware, religious books and food. The buildings are in good shape. The bell tower Saint-Nicolas is impressive. It's definitely worth it to participate in a guided tour. Have to speak French though.
