The restored Romanesque monastery buildings of the Abbey St. Aubin are the site of the city prefcture. Windows have been inserted in some of the cloister arcades and parts of the cloister and chapterhouse have been utilized. The carvings are good examples of early 12C and 13C workmanship, well worth a few minutes of study.

Directions: Across street (des Lices) from Tour St. Aubin
