Abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel

€10

Classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Mont-Saint-Michel and its abbey is a natural and architectural marvel, attracting more than three million visitors every year. Exposed to the elements in a wide sandy bay, the abbey has a truly unique atmosphere. When you approach the island, Mont-Saint-Michel appears like a jewel rising into to the sky, neither on solid ground nor completely on the sea. A major pilgrimage destination since its construction in the 8th century, the abbey is open all year round.
