Former collegiate church Saint-Vulfran, Gothic church in Abbeville, France

The Saint-Vulfran collegiate church features a main facade with three portals and a large window that illuminates the central nave of the building.

The construction of the collegiate church started in 1488 in a marshy valley near the Somme river, with the nave completed in 1539 and the choir built between 1661 and 1663.

The facade portals display statues representing various saints, which were funded by local medieval trade guilds.

Visitors can explore several side chapels decorated with altarpieces and 17th-century artworks in the church's aisles.

Architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc led restoration works in the 19th century to strengthen the structure of this flamboyant Gothic church.
