Ruins in Tournai

Highlight • Historical Site

The Benedictine abbey of Saint-Nicolas-des-Près-sous-Ribemont was founded in 1083 by Anselmus II, lord of Ribemont. On one of the river arms, where the monks had fishing rights, the Hocquerel mill was built at the end of the 12th century, providing the monks with all necessary facilities and services. The abbey burned down in 1570, was looted and partially destroyed during the Wars of Religion, but was rebuilt in 1663. Prior Dupart devoted himself to implementing reforms and restoring the Benedictine rule in its original purity. In 1832, Mr. Bonjour bought the remaining parts of the monastery to establish a wool spinning mill. This is now privately owned.
