Mont Saint-Michel sits above the horizon in splendor

Le Mont-Saint-Michel
The Abbey at Mont-Saint- Michel is one of the most spectacular sights in the world. Sitting majestically atop a prominent, rock knob, often surrounded by rising tidal flows, the Abbey lures it visitors with dramatic architecture, mystery, and its uniqueness. Although out of the way unless you are touring Brittany, be sure to see Le Mont-Saint-Michel, it is one of the attractions of a lifetime.
