On the edge of the marshes of Cotentin and Bessin, discover the imposing Abbey of Saint-Fromond. A place steeped in history that has suffered, through the centuries, the pangs of time but has always managed to recover.

Founded around 650 by Saint-Fromond, bishop of Coutances, the Abbey quickly became a must in our territory!

Monastery, Viking attacks, World War II, destruction, reconstruction, reshuffle ...

The Abbey of Saint-Fromond, composed of a mix of architectural styles, shared between Romanesque and flamboyant art, invites you to back in time!

To know : According to his desire, in 690 Saint-Fromond's body was buried in the monastery church he had founded. From then on, his tomb became a place of pilgrimage
