Make a Pilgrimage to Mont Saint-Michel
Soaring above its perch on a rocky island off the Normandy coastline, the Abbaye du Mont-Saint-Michel appears as if a vision from heaven
Description
Mont Saint-Michel is known as the "Pyramid of the Seas" thanks to its awe-inspiring and otherworldly splendor.
The island's glorious Gothic abbey has been a stop along the "Way of Saint James" pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela since the 11th century. Medieval pilgrims walked across the Bay of Saint-Michel's sandbanks at low tide to arrive at the Mont Saint-Michel. The bay crossing was the last stretch of the long, arduous pedestrian journey to reach this important Christian destination.
The "Chemins du Mont-Saint-Michel" ("Paths of Mont-Saint-Michel") pilgrimage routes lead to Mont-Saint-Michel from various starting points such as Paris, Rouen, and Tours. These routes continue on to Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
