Saint Gervais Basilica<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"icon<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Basilique Saint Gervais<\/a> was built in the 17th century and underwent a great deal of renovation work during the 19th century. However, it was in 2010 that the Basilica’s restoration took on a whole new, much more significant dimension. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2006, the Basilique Saint Gervais<\/strong> has been listed as a Monument Historique.<\/strong> The basilica is also home to the famous “treasure”…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Treasury<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"icon<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a collection of religious objects<\/strong> that are carefully preserved in a room belonging to the church. This is the treasure of the Basilica of Saint Gervais<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the French Revolution and the separation of Church and State in 1904, parish property was confiscated and destroyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At that time, the clergy of Avranches, led by Father Cornille, set about creating a parish museum<\/strong> where, as the years went by, a large number of objects<\/strong> related to religion were collected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main object of this collection is the skull of Bishop Aubert<\/strong>, marked by the fingerprint of the Archangel Saint Michael. Many visitors flock to the site every year to admire this exceptional object<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Saint Saturnin Church<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Church of Saint Saturnin<\/a> is the oldest religious building in the commune of Avranches, according to several historians and their theories and studies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The church’s rather small dimensions <\/strong>prompted work to enlarge it in the mid-19th century. At the time, the church was “crowded” on market days, according to the parish council. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
