Le Bec-Hellouin (French pronunciation: [lə bɛk ɛlwɛ̃]) is a commune in the department of Eure in the Normandy region in northern France.
[3] Bec Abbey was founded in 1034 by Herluin, who was a knight at the court of Brionne and a Benedictine.
From 1792 to 1794 bells and valuable decorative objects were removed from the church and finally brought to Bernay.
The windows of the church were destroyed during the bombing of Le Bec-Hellouin on 13 August 1944, in the course of World War II.
The Benedictine monks returned in 1948 and the tomb of Herluin was moved back to the abbey in 1959.
