Arrival of groups at the abbey:

  • Please respect the time slot allocated to you when booking. Any delay will result in the loss of your priority access and entry will be subject to availability.
  • If payment is made on site on the day of the visit: the group waits outside the monument while the accompanying adult goes to the ticket office with the booking confirmation and pays the entrance fee. The accompanying adult then joins the group to go through the ticket control point and enter the monument. To ensure a smooth and rapid check, tickets must be distributed to each participant.
  • If the group has tickets purchased in advance: the whole group goes to the ticket control point via the dedicated access queue. The accompanying person presents the booking confirmation and then each participant presents their ticket.
