Stone gargoyles peer down from the towers of Abbeville’s Collegiate Church, their silent gaze guarding secrets as old as the city itself. Hidden beneath Abbeville’s quiet streets lies a world shaped by war, invention, and remarkable personalities—stories that rarely make the guidebooks.

This self-guided audio tour leads you through shadowed alleyways and vibrant squares, bringing you face to face with scandal, innovation, and survival. Will you uncover what really happened during the desperate days of the Battle of Abbeville? What clues did Boucher de Perthes unearth that rewrote the history of mankind? Who was the unconventional figure once accused of hiding a forbidden relic in plain sight?

Stride from ancient church stones to the museum’s troves, letting echoes of rebellion and revelation guide every step. By journey’s end, the city of Abbeville will never look the same.

Begin your discovery and follow the watchful eyes of Abbeville’s guardian gargoyles.
