GRAVILLE ABBEY
Go there and contact
Graville Abbey in Le Havre features a church with a Gothic nave and remnants of convent buildings.
Founded by Guillaume Malet de Graville, a former companion of William the Conqueror on his return from the Battle of Hastings, the abbey is a sublime example of 12th-century Norman Romanesque art, with the exception of the later Gothic choir. The site is a journey through time and the arts, revealing one of the finest medieval statues in the region, as well as the magnificent monumental Black Madonna in the gardens. And don't miss the collection of 150 late 19th-century models illustrating human habitation.
