At the beginning of the 11th century it was a Benedictine abbey. It is worth visiting, but also crossing the river to admire it from its elevated position.

Built in the 13th century, the Manoir de la Cour is one of the rare examples of a civil building from this period that is still well preserved. It has been restored and now houses a permanent exhibition on the history of the building in the Middle Ages.

But at the beginning of the 11th century, this abbey was a Benedictine abbey. It is worth visiting it, but also crossing the river and admiring the abbey from this grandiose angle.
