Jumièges Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

The monastery's origins date back to 645. The Vikings burned it down in 841. Over time, however, it became one of the most influential monasteries in France. Until the French Revolution brought an end to this power and also to the monastery itself.
Mainly remains of the two impressive churches have been preserved. But the gatehouse, the new apartment and the bakery are also still in the extensive park.

Please note the opening times when visiting. We were surprised by the lunch break from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

Ruins of Jumièges Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

Jumièges Abbey is often called the "most beautiful ruin in France". Indeed, its white towers almost 50 meters high are impressive.

The old Benedictine monastery was built at the end of the 8th century and destroyed in the 19th century. It is of archaeological as well as tourist interest.

The church has obviously been renovated recently - at least that's what it looks like from the outside.

Great tour. Make sure you bring time and food for a picnic under the trees in the monastery garden. Sensational atmosphere
