Another impromptu visit on a January afternoon, out of curiosity. The Abbey is "on the way to nowhere", so it requires a dedicated visit, but one which repays the effort I think.
The town is tiny, and the abbey is plonk in the middle, with a fast flowing river at its flank. Although sparsely ornamented, and relatively small, it is quite beautiful and rewarding inside, totally open with a central altar surrounded by rows of tiny wooden chairs, of a size to suit a primary school.
There are very narrow ambulatory galleries round the walls, quite high up. The monks must have been almost elfin in size to move around them.
There is a simplicity almost amounting to austerity about the abbey church, but I was much moved by it and was very glad to have spent time in it, and in walking the surrounding gardens in the pale wintry late-afternoon sun. It's history goes back 1000 years or more, but is has been rebuilt after war and time took its toll, and is a little miracle in the middle of nowhere.

An excellent place to visit. The town of Lonlay L'Abbaye is very beautiful an sits in excellent countryside. The Abbaye is the jewel! The display including the old apple press was of great interest.

This abbey suffered considerable damage in WW2 but was then rebuilt . A large abbey with an interesting history. It is by a pretty stream and a complete cider press in the grounds which is well worth a look. a nice place to visit.

The Abbey is located in the village centre, just around the corner from the biscuit factory. The whole complex used to be much bigger, all there is left now is the abbey , the cider press building and some gardens. You can go and visit inside the church.

This is a working church with the abbey attached, In the past it was much larger. The cloisters are still there and the history of its life is explained on leaflets around the church. The abbey is twinned with its brother order in Stogursley in the UK, and a piece of it is displayed just off the nave. There is more than enough to interest you if your french is acceptable.
