Abbaye royale Saint-Michel de Bois-Aubry, Historical abbey in Luzé, France.
Saint-Michel de Bois-Aubry Abbey features a tall 14th-century bell tower, a rood screen, and an echo chamber within its stone buildings.
The abbey was established through a noble donation in 1118 and received royal support from kings Louis XI and Charles VIII during its development.
The cemetery within the abbey grounds contains the remains of American actor Yul Brynner, who was interred there in 1990.
