Abbey of Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives
I was asked about information on the Abbey of St Pierre sur Dives by a forum member.

Abbey of Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives

The Abbey of Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives is a Benedictine abbey founded in the 11th century. It forms one of the most comprehensive monastic architectural groups in Normandy.

It’s an unexpectedly large monument for a small town such as Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives. The tall towers of the abbey church loom high over the town, for which the monks built a large covered marketplace in the 13th century for a flourishing local market. Remarkably, the town and the abbey were spared by the bombings at the end of World War II.

There is a tile floor in the Abbey of St Pierre sur Dives that I'm interested in.

There are a few of the lion symbol that is seen on earlier century shields. Lots of early fleur de lis, and there is a dragon. I'm looking for a pineapple that is said to be there. And birds.

And site or link that has those tiles categorized?

There might be a research paper by a historian... no idea!

Maybe a curator in a local museum would know.

Maybe local university in Caen local history department??? but they would focus more on D Day landing and that time period events...

they are even talking about turning the landing beaches into a theme park which in my opinion would be treasonous...

anything that will bring profit...
