Jumieges Attractions

In the little town Jumièges (pop. 1,714) are the imposing ruins of an abbey founded in 654 and destroyed in 1790, with the remains of two churches and the conventual buildings and a small museum. The church of St-Pierre dates in part from the Carolingian period and has clear traces of early Norman work (10th C).

Abbaye de Jumièges

The Abbaye de Jumièges dates back to 654 and was built by the Benedictine Order. The monastery was burned in 841 and restored in 934. The abbey was ravaged several more times and eventually became the property of the state in 1947.
