Abbaye aux Hommes by Ewingjr98
William the Conqueror of England built the Abbaye aux Hommes (Abbey of the Men) in 1063 as an attempt to smooth things over with the Pope. Why was the Pope clashing with William the Conqueror? For leading rampaging armies into France? No. For marrying his cousin Mathilde. This church was one of the few buildings in Caen to survive the Allied attacks in June 1944.
