Mont St Michel - Manche

The jewel in Normandy’s crown is Mont St Michel. Thought to have been inhabited since 500 AD the majority of the spectacular romanesque and gothic buildings date from the 13-16th centuries including the three story Merveille.

The tarmac causeway means the site is no longer an island and the tide no longer sweeps in at the speed of a galloping horse. The tiny streets and steep stairs are not so enchanting when it’s busy in the spring and summer.
