View of Mont Saint-Michel

Highlight • Viewpoint

At this place the view of Mont-Saint-Michel is majestic. We can see the new footbridge connecting the Mont to the shore, with the comings and goings of the shuttles. I recommend making a small detour of a few hundred meters to Ardevon. The view of the Mount is then unusual; one has the impression that it is built in the village.

Ardevon Priory

Highlight • Other

The Priory of Mont-Saint-Michel, located in Ardevon, 5 km from the Mont, is a built ensemble from the 13th century, which belonged to the Abbey until the French Revolution. It was the agricultural domain of the Abbey, and a place of rest and earthly retreat for the monks and the Abbot. Pilgrims also stayed there for their last stop before the sanctuary.
Adjoining the village church, the priory offers several old buildings:
- The main body devoted to the accommodation of pilgrims and visitors to the Mount, with a reception area, a refectory and a conference room.
- The tithe barn which has been restored to make it a meeting room
- The dovecote which has become a small oratory.
The whole, classified as a Historic Monument, offers the town of Ardevon a harmonious architectural silhouette.

Saint-Benoît Polishing Stone

Highlight • Monument

This polisher, dating from around 4,000 BC, is a quartz block of modest size, 1.25 m by 0.50 m, barely level with the grass. On its surface, there are a dozen parallel grooves and a basin. The bowl was used to polish flints and the grooves to sharpen the edges of axes. Excavations have uncovered polished axes, one of which is jade.
The place is also called "Pierre de Saint-Benoît". Because according to one of the legends attached to this monument, it would be Saint Benedict petrified: the pink veins that run through the block would be the veins of the saint and the grooves his ribs.
The water in the basin is said to have curative and febrifuge properties: feverish people came on pilgrimage, sprinkled themselves with this water and placed offerings in the grooves, hoping for the cure of their ailments.
It is reached by a little busy and very pleasant little road.

View of Mont Saint-Michel from Montjoie-Saint-Martin

Highlight • Viewpoint

As its name indicates, this small village is perched on a hillock at an altitude of 168m, which allows you to enjoy one of the first views of Mont Saint Michel, located a good twenty km away. The origin of the village's name comes from the time when pilgrims going to Mont Saint-Michel exclaimed “Mont Joie!” » seeing the Mount in the distance. The inhabitants thus have the chance to be "Montjoyeux"...
The best viewpoint is marked by a marker and is located just behind the church.
