Abbaye de Saint-Pé-de-Bigorre, Romanesque abbey in Saint-Pé-de-Bigorre, France.
The abbey stands on the right bank of the Gave de Pau river, featuring characteristic Romanesque architectural elements and a rectangular choir section.
Founded in 1022 by monks from Saint-Sever-de-Rustan, the abbey underwent reconstruction between 1676 and 1681 following damage from an earthquake in 1661.
The monastery served as a significant stop along one of the four main pilgrimage routes crossing the Pyrenees toward Santiago de Compostela.
The abbey, located 8 kilometers west of Lourdes, offers guided tours showcasing its architectural features and religious artifacts throughout the year.
The structure contains remnants of its original Romanesque construction, including several apsidioles and sections of the southern transept wall.
