Description 

"The Jumièges peninsula remains a place of legend and mystery. Here, on the borders of the Seine, standing in the shadow of an ancient and crumbling abbey, the Église St. Valentin stands, a testament to ancient legend and modern perseverance." - Saint Valentin et les légendes de Jumièges

Notes 

Unfortunately our visit to L'église Saint-Valentin was cut short by a heavy rain shower and unusually for France, the church being locked.
