A former abbey with a Romanesque church with three naves and a 12th century bell tower, transformed into a cultural center in Vertheuil.

Saint-Pierre Abbey was founded in the ^11th century by William VIII of Aquitaine. It housed a community of canons of the Order of Saint Augustine. Devastated several times during the Hundred Years' War and the Wars of Religion, it was extensively remodeled in the ^18th and ^19th centuries. Several buildings bear witness to this past: the Romanesque church, the ^12th-century bell tower, the ^18th-century abbey buildings and the remains of the chapter house. Today, it serves as a cultural center and houses the Petit Musée d'Automates.
