Saint Peter's Abbey Church, Corbie

Highlight • Other

The Saint-Pierre de Corbie Abbey Church is a Gothic church which was once the main building of a powerful Benedictine abbey. Founded in the 7th century by Queen Bathilde, the abbey played an important role in the Carolingian Renaissance and produced numerous manuscripts and missionaries. The church itself has been rebuilt several times following fires and wars, and today only a third of its original length remains. You can admire its impressive façade, its high vaults and its rich furnishings, as well as discover the history of the abbey and the town of Corbie at the nearby museum. The Abbey Church of Saint-Pierre de Corbie is a monument that will take you back in time and will inspire you with its beauty and its heritage.

This old towpath offers beautiful views and a relaxing calm. There are no more draft horses there as in the past, but only a few cyclists and barges.

The place was in the Franco-Prussian War on 27./28. November 1870 scene of heavy fighting during the Battle of Amiens (1870). During the First World War, on April 24, 1918, there were battles between British and German tank units as part of the German spring offensive. On August 8, 1918, the "black day of the German Army", allied, in particular Australian and Canadian units, broke through the German lines in the vicinity of Amiens.
