Saint-Pierre-en-Auge

Saint-Pierre-en-Auge has served as a market town in Normandy since the Middle Ages. Centred on the former commune of Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives, it lies in the Pays d’Auge, where the Dives River runs through pastureland and orchards. The former Benedictine Abbey of Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives, founded in the 11th century, remains the town’s principal historic landmark, with its church and monastic buildings recalling the site’s long religious role. Saint-Pierre-en-Auge was created in 2017 through the merger of several communes, bringing rural hamlets together with the old market centre.
