Construction of this building began in 1488, and although it remains unfinished, it is a masterpiece of Flamboyant Gothic art in Northern France. Its frontage is remarkable: rose window, gallery, Renaissance statues, two symmetrical towers just over 55m high topped by two lookout turrets. The central doorway is a fabulous witness to the work of the Picardy chestmakers illustrated by Renaissance doors. It was only in the 17th century that the nave was completed in Gothic style. The interior features a remarkable 17th century Last Judgement altarpiece and stained-glass windows by William Einten, of religious or biblical inspiration.

Entre amis

If you're passing through Abbeville, be sure to visit this lovely collegiate church, one of the masterpieces of flamboyant Gothic architecture in northern France. Flanked by 2 towers (with look-out posts) and with a wooden nave built like the hull of a ship, it reminds us that Abbeville was a sea port in the Middle Ages. Don't miss the altarpieces, over 600 years old! Afterwards, enjoy a meal with friends at the "C'est la Vie" restaurant with its relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

En amoureux

The collegiate church of Saint Vulfran stands like a lady dressed in lace. A lacy gown which was unfortunately damaged during the Second World War. Its flamboyant Gothic architecture has since been lovingly restored. The building is bathed with soft light flooding through the modern stained glass windows.
