Logis Tiphaine : info and guided tour

Introduction to Logis Tiphaine

Logis Tiphaine is a historic house at Mont-Saint-Michel, located at 41 Grande Rue, in the heart of the medieval town. Listed as one of the site’s memorial places, it attracts visitors for its ancient architecture and its atmosphere closely tied to the history of Mont-Saint-Michel. Today, it is a history museum that evokes life in the rock during the Middle Ages.

The house is best known for having belonged to Bertrand du Guesclin and his wife, Tiphaine Raguenel, which is where its name comes from. Its appeal lies as much in its history as in its interior spaces, which retain the character of a medieval urban residence. Logis Tiphaine offers a concrete glimpse into how the elite lived at the time.

Inside, visitors discover old rooms and décor that highlight the domestic atmosphere of a Mont-Saint-Michel residence. The rooms, woodwork, and objects on display make it possible to imagine daily life in this narrow house, tucked into the tight fabric of Grande Rue. The site is a fitting complement to a visit to the fortified village.
