Église Saint-Evre de Toul, Ancient Benedictine monastery in Toul, France

The Saint-Evre Abbey features architectural elements from multiple periods, with a main church building and surrounding monastic structures spread across 5 hectares.

Founded in 507, the monastery stands as the oldest religious establishment in Lorraine and underwent several reconstructions following damages during conflicts.

The monastery became a center of education and spiritual reform, influencing numerous religious practices throughout the medieval Lorraine region.

The abbey grounds contain remnants of original structures, including foundations and burial sites discovered during archaeological excavations in 1974.

A monk from this abbey wrote a Latin poem called Ecbasis in 1043, narrating the adventures of an escaping calf through medieval allegories.
