Abbaye Saint-Barthélemy de Noyon, Medieval abbey in Noyon, France

The Abbey of Saint-Barthélemy stands in Noyon with its stone walls reflecting architectural elements from different construction periods through the centuries.

Founded in 1064 by Bishop Baldwin of Noyon, the abbey initially housed a small church before expanding into a larger religious complex for Augustinian canons.

The abbey maintained a collection of over 2000 volumes in its library and held valuable silver pieces weighing 45 marks during the 18th century.

The abbey buildings underwent multiple reconstructions, with the latest neo-gothic church built in 1875 before its destruction during World War I.

The Sisters of Saint Thomas of Villeneuve purchased the abbey buildings in 1862 to establish a boarding school that operated until 1904.
