Abbaye Sainte-Croix de Guingamp, Medieval abbey in Guingamp, France.
The Abbey of Sainte-Croix features a transept square with broken arcades and a hexagonal staircase tower within its remaining structures.
Founded in 1134 by Count Etienne de Penthièvre, the abbey underwent reconstruction in the 15th century under Abbot Jean Hamon with support from Count Pierre.
The abbey maintains its role as a center for religious heritage preservation, representing medieval monastic architecture in the Brittany region.
Visitors can explore the abbey ruins, including the polygonal apse and transept dating from 1748 to 1750, located at 36 rue de l'Abbaye.
The abbey entrance portal displays a commemorative plaque marking the protection granted by King Louis XIII during the 18th century.
