This medieval Benedictine monastery is one of the most spectacular sights in Europe. Dating back to the eighth century, Mont Saint-Michel sits atop an island in the Bay of Saint-Michel at the convergence of Brittany and Normandy. Visitors can reach the abbey on foot, by bus or maringote (horse-drawn carriage). For a treat, stay on the island and enjoy a world-renowned omelet at La Mère Poulard or Normandy specialties, such as crepes and galettes.
