Gilbert Bridge over the Sée

Highlight • Bridge

The “Pont Gilbert - Passerelle de la Sée” is a pedestrian and bicycle bridge that connects Avranches and Marcey-les-Grèves. This bridge is located on the site of a historic bridge and has a ramp for a gentle climb and easy crossing to the other side of the river. It is a very useful bridge and recommended by cyclists. The bridge is also one of the highlights in the Vernix region.

Le Val-Saint-Père

Highlight • Other

The Saint-Pierre church dates from the 16th century. Its saddle-topped bell tower sees the base of its roof embellished, on the south and north sides, with an openwork balustrade, and its porch is covered in stone in heaps of load. The name of the locality is attested under the forms in valle Sancti Petri in 1222, Val Saint Pere in 1305, Val Saint Perre in 1392, Val Saint Pair between the 17th and 20th centuries.
The parish was named both Val-Saint-Père in connection with Saint Pierre who is the patron of the church and Val-Saint-Pair in reference to Saint Pair, bishop of Avranches. It is a compound of val "valley" and the name of Saint-Pierre in a dialectal form.

A mountain in Avranches!

Highlight • Other

A nice little road that climbs well, it almost feels like a mountain… A slope with peaks of more than 10%!

In 1791, the monastery of Mont Saint-Michel was plundered. About 4,000 books from the library end up in Avranches, then the capital of the district. Among them were 203 manuscripts*, some of them from the 9th century.
Originals and copies are on display, including Plato's Timaeus and 9th-century fragments of Cicero's Oratore. These fragile masterpieces are exhibited in turn in groups of fifteen, in the Salle du Trésor of the Scriptorial.
