SAINT-PIERRE ABBEY
Go there and contact
Romanesque church with a 3-bay bell tower-porch in Lesterps, resembling that of the Carolingian buildings
All that remains of the former abbey is the 11th-century church. It features a three-bay bell tower with semicircular arches resting on cruciform piers. The 43-metre granite tower dominates the village. The style is Romanesque, but resembles that of Carolingian buildings. Near the church, as you go up to the square, you can see the remains of the former choir and gallery. To the right of the church, the former cloisters are now a garden where the last two abbey buildings can be seen.
