Located in Sorde-l'Abbaye in the heart of an old fortified town, Sorde Abbey is one of the jewels of the Landes heritage which tells more than fifteen centuries of history!
This abbey, founded in the 10th century by the Benedictines, was built on the remains of a Gallo-Roman villa which has preserved magnificent mosaics typical of the Aquitaine school (4th-6th centuries). The church, with free access, is rich in sculpted decorations and Romanesque mosaics as well as an 18th century marble marquetry high altar.
The monastic buildings are revealed in free or commented visit. Rebuilt in the 18th century, they now offer the image of monumental ruins that invite you to explore emotionally charged. Under the majestic terrace, the cryptoporticus, an astonishing underground gallery connected to a landing stage, reveals the singularity of this exceptional heritage. The view of the Gave d'Oloron and its wooded meanders fully contributes to the charm of the site.This exceptional ensemble is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List under the routes to Santiago de Compostela in France.
