Founded in the 14th century by the Count of Boulogne, The Chartreuse In ‘Neuville-sous-Montreuil’ stands up in the Canche valley, close to the city of Montreuil-sur-Mer. You can discover the actual monument (20 000 m2) rebuilt by the local architect Clovis Normand in the 19th century. Guiding tours are available.

Montreuil origins are closely linked to religious history. Its name is coming from a latin word ‘monasteriolum’ that means ‘small monastery’. In 926 AD, monks of the abbey of Landévennec (Brittany) ran away because of Norman invasions and found refuge in Montreuil to found the abbey of Saint-Walloy (strange other local name for Saint-Guénolé). In 1111 AD, that abbey was renamed when Saint-Saulve relics were brought. In Middle-Ages, pilgrims were attracted by numerous relics and provided a character of sanctity to the town. It was called then the ‘Ponthieu Necropolis’. In 1467, a natural catastrophe caused the collapse of six religious monuments at least including the Hôtel-Dieu and the Saint-Saulve Church. The last monument was entirely rebuilt in the very beginning of the 16th century. But it was only a short respite: the armies of Charles Quint set the church on fire when the town had been attacked. It was partly rebuilt because of the financial cost. The whole Sacred Art Treasure disappeared in 1793. Saint-Austreberthe relics including a richly decorated pastoral crosier were placed indoors after the French Revolution. In the 19th century, the addition of other relics makes the whole sacred treasure one of the richest of the North of France. It is possible to see a part of it during a visit inside the Abbey Church.

The Citadel considered as a military fortress, was declared historic monument and wants to remember the military life from Middle Ages to the Great World. Today it is home to a great part of the 'Musée de France Roger Rodière' collections and a youth hostel.

Conchy developed along a coastal river, the Canche. This river, renowned for its trout, allowed mills and their activities to develop, as evidenced by the former sawmill, now a cultural centre.

Its heritage is rich in traditional rural dwellings, old farms and smallholdings, and of course the church, the old presbytery and the school.
