THE SAINT-GERVAIS TREASURE
Treasures with a beautiful collection of priestly vestments, religious silverware, stone, and wood statues
Before entering the basilica, one is struck by the 74-metre-high granite bell tower, which houses a set of twenty-three bells. Its treasury has a fine collection of priestly vestments, religious silverware, stone and wooden statues including a superb 13th-century Nativity, but the highlight of the visit is undoubtedly the relic of the skull of St Aubert, the first founder of the Abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel. You will see the hole left in the skull, which is said to have been made by the finger of the archangel Saint Michael!
