Manoir de Brion, Medieval manor house in Dragey-Ronthon, France
The Manoir de Brion stands as a stone structure near the village of Genêts, featuring traditional Norman architectural elements and overlooking Mont Saint-Michel Bay.
Founded in 1137 by Abbot Bernard du Bec, the manor initially operated as a Benedictine priory connected to the prestigious Abbey of Mont Saint-Michel.
Kings Charles VI, Louis XI, and Francis I made this manor their resting place during religious journeys to Mont Saint-Michel in medieval times.
The manor functions as a bed and breakfast establishment, located just one kilometer from the bay and six kilometers from Mont Saint-Michel.
Explorer Jacques Cartier received his introduction to King Francis I at this manor before his Canadian expedition, leading to naming Brion Island.
