BENEDICTINE ABBEY
A remarkable abbey houses a rich Benedictine library, a museum of sacred art and a tourist office in Saint-Mihiel.
The Benedictine abbey was founded in 709 by Wulfoad, a powerful lord of the Austrasian court, and dedicated to Saint Michael. Today owned by the town, this remarkable architectural ensemble has undergone several transformations. The abbey is now a cultural complex, a venue for exhibitions and workshops. It is also home to the Benedictine library (the only abbey to have preserved, on its library shelves, a significant proportion of the books for which it was designed), the sacred art museum and the tourist office.
