LOCAL ABBEY
Read moreNotre-Dame Abbey was built in 1138 by Raoul IV of Vermandois, Comte de Crépy. If the church we observe today is very different from that of the 40 th century, excavations over the past years have revealed the architectural importance of the parish: a rigorous symmetry, a prominent transept, a basilicale nave and a flat chevet choir (replaced by a apse in the th century). After the Hundred Years War, the abbey is almost entirely restored. The nave passes from five to three spans. The crosspieces are associated with the central vessel thanks to a hanger double arcade back on a circular stack. The abbey is a beautiful example of flamboyant Gothic, as evidenced by the very wide and refined rose facade of its exterior exterior, illuminated under the rays of the sunset sun. The abbey is located outside the village of Bonneuil (access by RD 32 between Fresnoy-la-Rivière and Vez).
