The Michelin Guide's review
This beautiful, orientally-inspired 10C Romanesque chapel on top of the St Michel rock is crowned by an 82m/269ft-high lava stone spire. Note the trefoil door, graceful arabesque patterns and red, black, grey and white stone mosaics. 10C murals adorn the vault of the small apse.
