Thank you very much for making this helpful visual aid that gives us a strong sense of atmosphere and "place." You put a lot of work into this and I, for one, am most grateful. Someday I hope to visit; in the meantime, you've given me a "next best." Merci.

[@Jupe367]

I visited this place over 25+ years ago and remover being mesmerized by the entire architecture and the history of it. This video brought back many positive memories of Mont Michel. Thank you.

[@grocperez6012]

Can you imagine the extent of the labor that went into building this place! Plus all the materials and artisans that had to be recruited...such an arduous task, but I'm sure one of love...

[@joydickson5748]

My husband and I stayed a night there in 2008. We had a meal in a restaurant in the evening and had a table by the window and watched the tide come in. An amazing sight as I have never seen tide come in so fast. In half an hour the stream and mud flats were covered in water. Also have a beautiful depiction of the last Supper made of stone now hanging on our home in New Zealand, where we returned to on 2010.

[@danguid2753]

The speed of the tide in these places is estimated to be that of a galloping horse

[@Wildflower-xe8sn]

What a beautiful spot. I visited in 1974, took private tour of lower levels which they were still excavating at the time. 0only 2 places on earth have the tidal phenomenon like Mont Saint Michel. Fascinating place

[@mytige20V]

Beautiful video of Mont St Michel. The people just surround it. What a storied history. The Abbey is just gorgeous and old. A lot of effort went into this video and I really appreciate it.

[@MrClarevillemo2000]

Mont Saint Michel was the most memorable part of my trip to France a few years ago if you visit France don*t miss seeing this wonderful place.

[@mccellen]

Yes, Maureen..it is definitely the place to go...so incredible and ancient..

[@infinitypoker6383]

This makes me feel things ..

[@gandigooglegandigoogle7202]

a monument of French history and culture that must be preserved at all costs! just amazing.

Looks wonderful & awesome, a gigantic monument worthy to visit...actually French abbeys & churches are well kept for tourism industry purposes.

[@mccellen]

Mom and I lived in Europe when I was a child...we frequently vacationed at Mont Saint Michel...I was under the age of 10..but I recall so much of this incredible place..there were no shops...I recall the terrace with a incredible view of the CousSeas and the Tower...we went with another family who had several children...we drank watered down wine as milk wasn't pasteurized then..the Tower has always been a fascination to me..and how they used it...during a war, the prisioners were thrown down into the tower and burned to death...I am 73 now and have always had a incredible love of history; I think being so young when at Mont Saint-Michel and living in Europe as a child firmly established my over the top interest in history..Wish I could go back there now...From the terrace at Mont St. Michel, one could see the beautiful Couesnon/Sea in the distance.. thought it was the Meditterean but it is the Couesnon Sea..

[@richardbenitez7803]

Just from this video, it is good to see so many young people very much engaged at looking at this place. I’m impressed. It is good to see the french govt make effort to restore the Abby.

[@agneserinkim]

wow so cool to consider how the history of our lives helps shape us like that! my family also took me on trips as a kid and i used to think if it's meaningful or not to show little kids such things, but it can and does make a different eh? :)

[@ViaggInGiro]

Thanks, I hope to visit, for now it is my dream

[@m53goldsmith]

Visited when I was 16 and I don't think I really appreciated it at the time. I remember walking past the terraced graveyard and remarking on how there were less than a dozen surnames over the centuries. We weren't allowed time to go any further than the main door of the abbey itself before we had to return to our coach. I always wanted to return, but never made it back. Thank you for posting this view of the inside of the abbey which I could now, being 67 and in a wheelchair, never hope to see again.

[@polemeros]

I spent the night there in 1974, before the new causeway was built, and got to watch the tide flow in and isolate the island as the sun was going down. Beautiful. A marvel of French and Western culture and civilization.

[@tomglpn]

My wife an I were here in 2017. This is the most amazing man made.object I have ever seen.

The solemn figure of Mont Saint Michel is beyond description , unimaginable , immeasurable , unfathomable and full of tribute and deep emotion and makes me feel peaceful and calm I'm just intoxicated with the majestic figure of Mont Saint Michel From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵

Why there is always some thumb-down? Hard to understand what was negative about this video?!! This is a very nice piece of presentation of Mont St. Michel.

Great video. We visited Mont Saint Michael back in 2009 so fond memories. I noticed it listed in the 200 must see places to visit in the world. I definitely agree.

It's called plane trails, from condensation. I vacation near St Malo since 1964 and have always seen them, they don't look any larger or different now as 50 years ago.

Im trying to bring a traditional blacksmith display to Le Mont Saint Michel, im speaking with the town about it currently. It would be cool to have the sound of an anvil ringing intermittently working on ironwork for the Abbey & Town. Not sure if we will make it permanent but a show at least for now :)

[@mooingAlong]

Loved Mont St. Michel! But if there is one thing that annoyed me during my visit there 2 years ago was I kept hearing the ringtone at 01:58 to the point that I got so annoyed by it. Then I found out it was quite a famous ringtone used by Asian tourists. :D

[@finalbossoftheinternet6002]

This place reminds me of attack on Titan. 3 walls and everything.

[@BBarnes904]

Thank you nicely done. Just returned from Mount St Michel. Unfortunately I got there too late to see the Abbey. I appreciated your video. Looks like I’ll need to return to France for another visit! Beautiful place!

[@JumboJETchannel]

You are welcome ...

[@MinusTheRogue]

I just came back from there as well, we visited early in the morning because of the large crowd that arrives later in the day.

[@denislove9838]

I retired from the Canadian Air Force in 1972, well under forty so look my wife and kids cycling in the UK and Europe for about six months. While at Mont Saint Michel our young son ( 12 years old) got sick so we found a christian group who came to our aid and we were fortunate to spend the night in their care. We wandered around a lot as no tourists after late afternoon. Saw things the average tourist would or could not see. We left the next day with great memories. We spent most nights in Youth Hostels. starting in Germany ,Scotland, England, France ,the Netherlands and back into Germany in the south at Larh, our then RCAF Base then back to Canada 5000 km trip, by bike. The biggest highlight was to spend well over 24 hours on the Mont . Good memories. Thanks for the article

[@suehofkamp8594]

Denis LOVE what a wonderful memory! You are fortunate to have such kind people to help you and to have seen so much during your time there.

[@denislove9838]

@@suehofkamp8594 Thanks for you comment Sue. It was quite an experience. The only four tourists there that night was us. The group that put us up was called Pax Christie

[@nyonyopraia]

I will tell my daughter to make this place as a one of the bucket lists, even better that her man will propose her there.

[@ianrobinson8974]

Thanks for the memories, revisited. Last there in 1985 and would like to return. Several things of note from my memories: The barrel shaped room, spotted in video, is the world's best natural lit room, beautiful. I attended Mass at the Church and after Mass the Monks and some Sisters returned to the centre of the Church and "let rip" a sacred song which just SOARED up into the ceiling of the church. Heavenly! Also, weren't the ancients masterbuilders?

[@3m5r56]

Hope they still have Mass there. It looks like a big tourist attraction.

[@MrZadokthePriest]

I, too, was wondering if mass is still celebrated there? Also is there a cloistered community still living on the island?

[@thomasrebotier1741]

@@MrZadokthePriest There still is a small community.

[@stufr.travel]

Mont St Michel is amazing. I just visited Mont st Michel last week, and made a video about it as well. Such a great place to visit.

[@emmanuelcharlot1695]

The people working the shops and restaurants are generally disrespectful with customers. They make Paris waiters sound positively polite and cheerful. If you decide to have lunch there or buy a souvenir, be prepared to walk away if you don’t like the attitude of the staff. Plenty of places to choose from and you might get lucky.

[@allandavies1642]

[@georgensal]

thanks for posting this very nice video of a unique place, I got to see things I didn't see when I went there. It was the month of November 1985, the sky was covered by dark clouds and the whole place was pretty much empty including the Abby and the streets, which gave the place a more magical feeling...and to top it off there was a traditional wedding taking place at the church of the Abbey with locals in traditional clothing dancing at the terrace....on the other hand though, sometimes when there are more tourist, by following them you get to see places you wouldn't suspect otherwise......Thanks for reminding me of that time....

[@collincoffey5882]

Nice video. It's a shame we're seeing opaque Groengineering everywhere, however. Sad times. Not the skies of our youth.

[@JPOwantstoknow65]

Magnificent structure. Whatever the historical record purports regarding who built this and when cannot be the truth. Stop and think about HOW this could have been built, in an era with no diesel powered cranes, no electricity, no hydraulics. How and where did they perform the precision milling of hundreds of thousands of stone, and where did it come from? How was it shipped in when all they had were wooden sailboats? A sail barge, lol I don't know what the truth is, however I know what it isn't.

[@steveparks6439]

Someone should do the video now, while the world in is at home.

Around 1968 three of us from Frankfurt American High School visited on a frosty day in February. Once we paid admission we were allowed to roam at will from the top of the steeple to the dungeon at the base of the monastery where instruments of torture were in plain view. Were the prisoners naughty monks; lapsed Catholics, or political prisoners of the Abbot?

[@barbaraball5002]

@Hona Hona You're the ignorant one. There are, in fact, medieval instruments of torture at Mont St. Michel. They're on the official tours. I've seen them. They're big. How dare you spew your nasty drivel about something of which you know nothing. Over the centuries millions if not billions of people have seen them, right there at Mont St. Michel.

With this week's 75th D-Day anniversary, I touched base with the many different places I visited along that coast over the years. Luckily, able to overnight at the inns both on the Mont and the mainland. My favorite memory is at day's end when you hear the announcement to empty the parking lot. "The water. It is coming in." And nothing beats the views from the castle summit.
