We were able to visit the abbey with our tickets before our time. Everything worked perfectly. Mont Saint Le Michel is a wonderful place. We were almost alone, especially early on. Beautiful.View original review in German

Strolling through the town, up and down the stairs, the terraces with the stone benches to look at and rest on, the huge ebb and flow.View original review in German

The getting of the headphones was a little confusing, after our tickets were slammed we had to back and ask where to go, but other then that it was great, they are really easy to use

Once we were in the abbey, it was bearable. Before that it was just too crowded. We took the shuttle one way, but we wouldn't do it again because there were just too many people squeezed in. If the parking fees are also used to maintain the M.s Michel, you can live with it. Otherwise it would be a rip-off. The ticket processing was flawlessView original review in German

The architectural mastery and expertise of the many generations of builders reverberate through the walls of the Abbey. It is believed that Benedictine Monks started constructing this Abbey in the 10th century! With a construction period of over 1300 years, it is no surprise that this Abbey was and is considered a technical and artistic feat. Having withstood constant assaults of time, man, and other elements, the mount is a strong symbol of French national identity today.
