À propos du lieu

Abbatiale de Mouzon

Place de l'abbatiale, 08210 Mouzon

Ardennes
Grand Est

Mouzon prend de l’importance, surtout en 971, après l’installation des moines bénédictins par Adalbéron, archevêque de Reims, which endowed the new abbey with lands and churches, but also relics, sacred objects indis At the end of the 12th century, Guillaume aux Blanches Mains wanted to establish a cathedral at the borders of the bishopric of Reims. The project will not be carried out, but it explains the exceptional size of this building in the countryside. The construction is part of the very first Gothic, houses the cell of Dame Mathilde de Villemontry, recluse volontaire in 1197, a Moucherel organ of 1725 and a baroque baldachin of 1728\.
The association «Presence of the Abbey» gives organ concerts every summer: [htt
