SAINT-AMAND ABBEY
Remains of the th century church, this place is considered the birthplace of the city. The abbey of Saint-Amand is the origin of the building of the city. Initially, it would have been composed of a church, a dining, cells, a cloister, a courtyard, a garden or a stable. From the time of construction only the northern croisillon, half the wall of the bedside and two lower halls arched. The terraces date back to the late th century, following the creation of the new Angoulême road on the edge of Vienna. It is possible to trample on the three remaining dévotion fountains. The first one is on one of the lower terraces, the second on the edge of the road which descends to Vienna and the last at the very location of the old church, indicating that it was inside the building itself.
