When was Mont Saint-Michel built?

The origins of Mont Saint-Michel date back to the 8th century when a sanctuary was first established there. Over time, it developed into a Benedictine abbey, with major construction taking place between the 11th and 16th centuries. Its Gothic spires, defensive walls, and monastic buildings reflect centuries of architectural evolution. The abbey remains a masterpiece of medieval construction.
