Your stamp from Beauport
To allow you to affix the stamp of the Abbey of Beauport in case of closure of the reception services, a stamp was placed near the km0 terminal by the care of the abbey. This stamp is freely accessible.
Its size corresponds to a credencial box. Just put the credencial on the stamp that is in relief, the pattern appears by rubbing a pencil on the credencial. Only use a gray, black or other color pencil. (neither ball pencil nor felt pen, it does not work).
