Grétais Abbey with a rich cultural programme, offering guided tours with the owners of the site.

A magical place and history! This ancient abbey was founded by Herluin de Conteville and his wife Arlette (mother of William the Conqueror, buried here) around 1050 following a dream. Suffering from a serious skin disease, Herluin dreamt of the Virgin Mary. The Virgin led him to a fountain to purify himself. The abbey was then built in homage to Our Lady.

lieu reposant, quelques batiments anciens avec de belles vieilles pierres, idéal pour en faire un camping en partie

Jean Charles a ouvert l abbaye exprès pour moi car c'était fermé. Il est très chaleureux et nous raconte l' histoire de ce lieu avec passion .
Sans lui ,ce lieu n aurait pas la même magie .

Très joli domaine privé ouvert au public qui mérite une visite. La source sort du sol. Il s'agit aussi de la demeure de la mère de Guillaume le Conquérant.

Ein wundervoller, stiller Ort! Und ein Dank an den unbekannten, älteren Herrn, der uns während seines Mittagessens im Garten der Abtei mit geschichtlichen Details bereichert hat!
