A superb abbey, one of the most important ducal buildings in Normandy, a masterpiece of medieval art.

A superb abbey, one of the most important buildings of the ducal era in Normandy, founded in 1063 by William the Conqueror, then Duke of Normandy. Comprising two parts (the conventual buildings and the church of Saint-Étienne), the Abbey aux Hommes is an architectural masterpiece of medieval art. The Hôtel de Ville de Caen now occupies the monastic complex, rebuilt in the 18th century around a Tuscan-style cloister. Consecrated in 1077, the Gothic-style abbey church houses the tomb of William the Conqueror.

Cette Abbaye dans l'alignement de l'hôtel de ville avec son cloître est sublime, cet ensemble architectural est à contempler par tous les temps et à visiter ????????

Plutôt décevant à l'intérieur, car il est utilisé comme Hôtel de Ville et inaccessible, sauf une petite partie. Par contre, l'extérieur est absolument magnifique. Lisez; "Macron, dans l'ombre", sur: angelogeorgedecripte.blog

Mooi indrukwekkend gebouw wat te bezichtigen valt. Je hebt er niet heel veel tijd voor nodig want wat er te zien valt is beperkt. Een deel van het gebouw is namelijk in functie als gemeentehuis.

Uno dei simboli della città, oggi sede del Comune e, nell' attigua chiesa è sepolto Guglielmo il Conquistatore
