Valmont Abbey, Gothic abbey in Valmont, France
The Valmont Abbey displays late Gothic architecture with Renaissance elements, including a chapel and multiple galleries spread across its grounds.
Founded in 1169 by Nicolas d'Estouteville, the abbey served as a burial place for his family and never housed more than 25 monks.
Eugene Delacroix visited the abbey in the 19th century, creating paintings of its ruins that are now exhibited at the Louvre Museum.
The religious site maintains its function as a Roman Catholic place of worship, managed by the Benedictine Congregation.
The abbey features a 13th-century stone cross in the monks' cemetery and preserves 16th-century stained glass windows of artistic value.
