A UNESCO World Heritage Site, since October 2016 Mont-Saint-Michel has once again become an island, linked to the coast by a light and unobtrusive unsinkable footbridge. The second most visited site in France, it culminates at 80 meters above sea level, dominated by its impressive Benedictine abbey, built between the XIᵉ and XVIᵉ centuries.
A bay of grandiose landscapes and unique experiences
On the slopes of the rock lies a perfectly preserved medieval town, with houses from the XVᵉ and XVIᵉ centuries. As you wander through the narrow streets lined with shops and restaurants, you’ll discover the famous home of La Mère Poulard. A visit to the abbey, the ramparts and the walkway offers an exceptional panorama of the Mont-Saint-Michel bay.
