Abbey Church of Saint Hugues et Saint Achaire d'Haspres
Haspres, FR
The Abbey Church of Saint Hugues et Saint Achaire d'Haspres is part of a vast estate: the provostship of Haspres, whose origins go back to the 7th century. Attached to the Abbey of Jumièges in 841 and then to that of Arras in 1024, the provostship is under the authority of a monk. It became an important pilgrimage centre following the arrival of relics of Hugh and Achaire, healers of mental illness, who are symbolized by a spider.
