The abbey of Saint-Martin, witness of the region’s first romanesque art

Listed as a historical monument since 1889, the abbey of Saint-Martin-du-Canigou is a beautiful example of Norman architecture.

Take time to observe and admire all its characteristics, from the superb vaulted crypt to the Lombard bell tower. One surprising detail about the abbey is that as well as its upper basilica, it also has a lower one, which is half buried!

Don’t forget to walk up to the panoramic viewpoint above the abbey for a breathtaking view over the monastery and the surrounding area!
