Facts and practical information

The Saint-Léger d'Ébreuil abbey, founded in the tenth century, is an abbey located in Ébreuil in the Allier. But following a decision of Louis XV, the buildings were destroyed to make way for a hospital of the Charitains.

Today, nothing remains of the abbey, except for the abbey church in Carolingian, Romanesque and early Gothic styles. It is the only Carolingian church in Auvergne and is one of the five Carolingian churches in France that have retained their wooden frameworks.
