Mont-Saint-Michel Abbey

Exterior of the Abbey Mont-Saint-Michel, France

Visiting Mont Saint Michele is like taking a walk back in time. The shops and other buildings were built centuries ago. The Abbey is breathtaking. Take a tour if you can. Be prepared to do a lot of climbing, the island is quite small and very steep. This place is one continuous photo op.

Mont St. Michel... From 966 onwards, the dukes of Normandy, followed by French kings, supported the development of this major Benedictine abbey on the Mont-Saint-Michel

This was also the inspiration for Minas Tirith in the Lord of the Rings, Return of the King...
