About Mont-St-Michel

Mont-Saint-Michel is a rocky tidal island in a vast bay on the Normandy coast, crowned by a medieval abbey and ringed by ramparts and fast tides.

Mont-Saint-Michel rises from the sands of a wide bay at the mouth of the Couesnon river, on the border of Normandy and Brittany. According to tradition the first sanctuary was built here in 708, and over the centuries a Benedictine abbey grew up the rock in granite tiers, topped by a church and a spire. The island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
